Okay, so here's my dilemma...
I made a careless typo calculating my starter today and used the last of my DME, and don't have time to get more before they close...here's where I'm at...
Moved my grain mill to my buddy's garage where were brewing already, so I can't just Biab with some grains & get a bigger starter.
I know I could get my wyeast 1272 tomorrow, but hate the idea of paying for more yeast I already have, since I top crop and propagate all the strains I have used...
Since I was pushing the alcohol tolerance already on the 1272, I thought maybe the best move would be to do a 2 strain fermentation, pick out a new yeast to add to my arsenal to finish up the beer after my ~334b cells do the best they can? I'd love some advice on this.... Or any other creative solutions someone might have?? I really wanna brew tomorrow, it's taken 3 weeks to finally get a day me and my buddy both could be off, and without other obligations!
Someone please help!!
