OK I was just sitting around thinking about a few things so forgive me if this is a dumb question. I am a noob, I have my first batch in secondary and my second, third, and Apfelwine in the works.
Can you double pitch a batch with 2 different kinds of dry yeast, say Nottingham and Windsor ale yeast for a high gravity batch like a RIS?
I just thought that the different characters of the yeast would be present but just toned down since they were both in there....
Just thinking about this and want some other people's 2 cents.
And say I want to do this and make a Winter Warmer, could I ferment in my basement at around 58 F or would that yeast go dormant? Maybe since there would be so much yeast sat least some would survive the lower temps?
