Looking for a little advice, about to do a beer with a 1.070 OG so know I cant use just one pack of US-05. I do however have an ipa with a OG of 1.056 in the fermentor that I'm going to keg on Tuesday, the initial idea was to use some slurry from that to use in the new beer and save ã5 on US-05 :mrgreen:
I have been looking into it and it seems like a right minefield :-(
I think the plan currently is to keg on Tuesday and if the beer looks good with no issues then save the yeast cake over night in the fridge then brew on Wednesday then pitch about 500ml of the slurry. Does this sound about right ?
Am going to order some US-05 as well but wont have time to make a starter from just one pack and tbh with the hassle i'd just stick the second one in.
