I'm planning to brew a nut brown this weekend (estimated OG 1.048) using dry yeast. this will be my first batch.
I checked the Mr Malty calculator and it tells me I need 1.9 5oz packs of dry yeast. I did happen to buy an extra pack - so i have two 6oz packs.
This may be a dumb question - but why do all the kits just give you one pack if you really need closer to 2?
Should I use 2 packs? Is there harm in over-yeasting?
Thanks
