Here's one. Say some guy I know is brewing a beer tomorrow with an (unexpected) estimated o.g. of 1.073 (but he rarely hits it). He only ordered one pack of Safale 05, but he happens to have a pack of 04 as well. He thinks these yeasts may be similar enough to pitch together and produce a tasty beer. Is it possible these strains will compete with each other and go to war? Is it wiser to just use the one pack of 05, aerate the @#$% out of it and use a BrewVint capsule and hope for the best?
* A side note: the beer in question is a root beer stout with lots of complex flavors, so mutant yeast flavor will most likely be lost somewhere in the jumble.....
