Short Answer: Yes Long Answer: Brandy is a distilled spirit. Making it involves fermentation (using yeast) then distillation to raise the alcohol concentration. I currently use active dry yeast for fermenation as a base for distillation because it has a longer shelf life than fresh yeast. Be aware that there are many different strains of Bakers/Brewers Yeast (Saccharomyces Cerevisiae) and each has slightly different characteristics. All have the ability to convert simple sugars into ethanol & CO2 - their individual suitability to produce good plum brandy is less assured.
In order to replace Pisco Brandy with an equally valuable liquor one could use apple brandy, apricot brandy, armagnac, cognac, or american brandy. These are all liquors that can be used to substitute Pisco Brandy and still have a type of brandy in the recipe.
