This might be more appropriately posted in the recipe section, but I wanted to see if you guys had thoughts on a 3rd yeast to use in a split batch recipe I am going to do this weekend.
My plan is to brew a 12 gallon batch and split it at least into two batches using Wyeast 1968 and the Wyeast Belgian Ardennes blend (can't remember the #).
Given the recipe below, is there another third yeast that might be good to experiment with (and do three 4 gallon batches)?
