It seems like we have this conversation over and over again. The answer is always the same. Some brewers rehydrate. Some don’t rehydrate.

I chucked in my S-04 about a quarter of the way up the fermenter today.  No reason other than I like to enjoy that yeasty, bready aroma before the racking is done.  Comforting, that. 
Signs of fermentation started in about 4-5 hours.
