    So we all know that many of of the yeasts we use are strains from professional breweries, but the yeast companies never tell us which ones. I've been able to find out some of them (WLP500=Chimay, WLP550=Chouffe), but does any one know of a source that lists them all? If not, can we get a list together of what we do know?

    I'll start:

    WLP500: Chimay

    WLP530: Westmalle

    WLP545: Rochefort

    WLP550: La Chouffe

    The commercial supplier do not say what the yeast is for a variety of reasons. The mrmalty site is a good reference.

    Exactly what I was looking for. Incomplete, but definitely a great source. Thank you!
