yeast cross reference chart

[Craigerrr]

I have been looking for a comprehensive yeast cross reference chart, and haven't found anything comprehensive on Brewer's Friend, or in Google searches.

Does anyone know of a good chart, or database?

I received this from a representative at Imperial.

^That one is pretty useful in terms of subbing out when you can't procure your first choice.

Mr Malty has one put together by Kris England. Like all yeast charts, it should be taken with a grain of salt. Sometimes these charts contradict each other. Some say WLP830 and 34/70 are an exact match, others say 2007 and 34/70 are exact. I think it's a lot of speculation.

I like that one^^^ for sourcing and liquid yeast comparison but it doesn't include any dry yeasts.

Also, in most cases, these are quite removed from their original sources. From some 1980's literature I could gather that 34/70 is indeed Weihenstephan's strain but who knows how far it is from the original now? Yeast evolves very quickly.

Thanks guys
I guess it can be pretty subjective, probably why we don't have a cross reference database on this site.
