I've got a batch chugging away in fermentation now. I made up the recipe and got a higher OG than I thought. The first night I took a reading and it was 1.095 which I thought was high. I took another the next day after swirling things around and it was 1.086. I pitched White labs Cali Pale yeast which says not to worry if your OG is < 1.070. I know I should've made a starter, but I've also heard at the LHBS about adding wine or barely wine yeast. When and how much of that should I add? and if you have recommendations on which strain from white labs that would be great too.
Thanks!
Also just as a side note, I find it interesting how much the primary temp changes from the yeast doing their thing.
