I've seen some older discussions on this topic but wanted to bring up my specific idea.
I'm brewing a Helles Bock (Maibock) with expected OG of 1.067
Will be using WLP 833 (German Bock Lager Yeast) and make a BIG starter
I then plan to brew a Doppelbock with expected OG of 1.095 - 1.1
The idea is to rack the Helles Bock and then pitch the Doppelbock right on top of the yeast cake and let it ferment away.
I've never done the pitching a new wort on top of a used yeast cake, but have some Homebrew buddies who have, and typically turns out well.
Any advice on this idea?
