We have a pack of Wyeast 1056 with a date of 11/26/13 on it and we want to brew this weekend 1/11/14. I ran the numbers through the MrMalty site and it looks like we might be a little yeast short since according to the calculator it's viability is down to 65%
We are brewing an APA with an OG of approx 1.055. I'm thinking rather than buying a second smack pack I might just toss in a packet of dry yeast along with it to make sure we have enough cells. Does anyone have a brand/type suggestion?
I have an extra 6 gram package of Muntons dry yeast with the BB date of 2/14/14 hanging around. Are we okay to just use that?
Thanks.
