I decided it's not worth it to use dry yeast, unless brewing spontaneously. I'd rather have a nice active starter ready to pitch than deal with dry yeast. The cost gap is closing as well. But I still keep some 34/70 and US-05 in the fridge, just in case. But, for a lager, I'd probably rehydrate to maximize the yeast going in.
I am drinking an Alt right now that I used 34/70. Tastes excellent! I will sprinkel 1 pack without rehydration without any fear. I have also fermented this yeast at 66 degrees. To my knowledge people on this site have said that this is the same strain as WLP830. If this is true why buy the liquid?

Holy sh*t, dudes! $7 for a pack of 34/70? I'd go liquid yeast at that point.
