The purpose of the inclusion of the orange pith in JAOM is to offset the sweetness and act as a bittering agent. But obviously if your using a stronger yeast than bread yeast (Which will usually go up to 'bout 12% with proper nutrition, closer to 8-10% without), then the orange pith is unnecessary and perhaps highly undesired.
