I've been lucky enough to be given this yeast from the local brewery:
I'm making a 5 gallon batch of pale ale this evening (partial grain - with 500g Crystal). My question is, how much of this yeast should I use?
The brewers said they use 12lb of the stuff for around 1660 litres, which would work out as 75g for 23 litres, but I'm not confident enough in my maths just risk a batch of ale!
The yeast is currently in the fridge. I'm guessing I have to mix it with some room temperature water and pitch it in?
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
