My Brewing buddy, and good friend (aka the Knob) ordered me the wrong Yeast. I want to brew tomorrow with everyone else but don't want to waste 5 gallons of beer! I was planning on brewing NBs #8 brew w/specialties (A Belgian strong dark ale). However, when I started to prepare the yeast for tomorrow I noticed I had a 2526 Kolsh instead of the 1762 Belgian that should have come with the order. So I did some research and saw that the 1762 Belgian is made for high gravity Belgian beers the 2526 is not. (yes, I know I should have double checked before tonight
)
So here is my questions what should I Do??? (other than beat my buddy)
1) Brew and use a yeast that was not meant for the recipe?
2) Brew and let the beer sit there for a few days before the correct yeast arrives?
(What would that do to the fermentation process?)
3) Not brew this beer until the correct yeast arrives (and my wife lets me brew again about a month)?
Thanks...(in advance)
