I am brewing an Imperial Bourbon Stout with an estimated OG of 1.122. I have never done a bath this high and I really don't want to screw it up. My initial thoughts were to pitch two packages of US-05 directly when the wert is below 80* I am not too sure if 1. that's the correct yeast to use and 2. Will two pkgs be enough. I am not going to re-hydrate it just pitch on the wert. Also after the primary is done I will be placing it in a secondary for the next 10-12 months with oak chunks soaked in my favorite bourbon for the entire time it is in the primary.
