It's feeding time again, and I'm wondering about brewers' Yeast.
 
I notice that it is recommended in some formulae and not in others.  When
I went to purchase, I find that there is a variety of price on the market,
and a variety of colour.
 
I wonder if anyone on the list has had any experience with different
kinds of brewers'yeasts and if any are actually harmful (say the ones that
are dried at high temoperatures).
 
And while I am asking, has anyone actually experimented to see if Mann
Lake's BeePro is any better than soy flour with or without brewers' yeast?
 
I dutifully read the section in the Hive and the Honeybee, and all I could
really conclude is that bees will eat just about anything and that any
given formula will work sometimes and apparently not others.
 
Has anyone some real answers on this?
 
TIA
