Short videos with lots of information. It helps to take notes and make step by step guides for yourself. The course definitely made me want to experiment with yeast more, and gave me some confidence to actually do it.
Tony makes some complicated tips and tricks with yeast understandable - an indispensable follow-up to the introductory yeast course.
Tony Rau did an excellent job covering the basics of advanced yeast management. His knowledge really showed through in this course. Text material provided in the course was helpful too.
