This is more of a curiosity question than anything. and couldn't find a good answer to this.
I have seen people say 1/2 to 1 tsp of IM for a 5 gallon batch, mostly leaning towards 1/2. 1/2 is mostly what I have been using but I have used a bit more (heaping 1/2 tsp) on the higher OG beers I have done. Seemed to make sense since there is more break material.
The question is there any detriment to using too much IM? off flavor or just wasting IM etc. etc. and does it make sense to use a little more on High OG beers?
Thanks
