Hello,
So I am making a mild. It should have an OG of 1.037 ish, as I recall. I want to pick the right yeast strain. I though about dry but my concern is if it will attentuate down too far. I don't want to lose the nice mild sweetness of the style. But I also want it to go far enough to hit the desired FG. I was thinking liquid yeast would work for this but just felt I should get some responses not just on this question but also on the effect of dry yeast on lower gravity beers. ie, with the higher pitching rates of dry yeast, are they sometimes overkill on low grav beers. I have never used them before. Thanks everyone.
