could i use notty as the yeast for this beer and have it come out close to what you've masterfully created?

I fear Notty will ferment this down far too dry; if I were pressed to use a dry yeast, I'd opt for US-04 or (gasp!

) Windsor.

no worries, just trying to save some $$ on buying yeast.

What's wrong with Windsor? I like Windsor, in its place. This is that place, if any place is.

what size recipe is this for? at one place it says 5 gallons and at another it says 6. Given how much water you use (7.87 gallons) lends me to think it's for a 6 since it's only a 60 minute boil, but i just want to make sure.

Hey Donner,

Sorry for the confusion here. For my system, I aim for 8 gallons preboil with 6 gallons chilled. I assume a loss of .5 gallons to the kettle and another .5 gallons to the trub. Gives me a total of 5 gallons of finished product.

Good luck!
