I decided to make a really big beer. 5 gallon part mash recipe I put together, OG was 1.122 and final is suppose to finish somewhere from 1.018 to 1.020 for a 10%ABV + beer.
Question is I never even thought about the amount of yeast to pitch, I used my favorite Safale-05,,,,,,,1 packet.
Fermentation took off in a matter of hours that day(this past Sunday) and has been scary since then, I have never seen so much activity ever! but what I am afraid of is I now realize I should have double pitched shouldn't I have?
Any words of wisdom? should I just let it ride it's course, should I add some more?
Help?!
Thanks in advance,
Doug W.
