Hello I have bought a extract kit and have a question on yeast. Recipe is mangrove jack blonde 1.5kg/ black rock light liquor malt 1.5kg/ 250gm crushed carpils malt/ 150gm wheat dried malt/ 25gm Amarillo hops/ 11.5gm safale us5 and 5gm yeast do I add salale and yeast or is the safale in there to substitute the yeast if so do I add all 11gm thanks hope u can understand all that.
 
The safale us-05 is yeast. Do you have another package of yeast that is 5gms? If they sent you two packages of yeast, I think I would pitch them both. Call or email the place you got it from to make sure.
 
I'm guessing that the can of LME came with a generic yeast but whoever put the kit together wants you to use the US-05. In my opinion the US-05 will tear through that wort before the other stuff wakes up.
