I recently picked up a pack each of White Labs WLP672 Lactobacillus Brevis and WLP661 Pediococcus Damnosus and would like some advice on incorporating them into my expanding sour collection.
So far have 3 batches of Flanders Red all fermented with Roeselare and various dregs. My next one will be a golden sour. I intend to pre sour with Omega Labs lacto, then ferment with farmhouse Hornindal kveik followed by WLP655 Belgian sour mix and the above bacteria strains.
I would like to make some starters and also dose up a few different demijohns. The first beer i brewed has little acidity so i thought it might be good for that as well.
Is it even necessary to use extra bacteria with WLP655? What can i expect from using them time wise. Are there any advantages to using both together and is the pedio best used in conjunction with brett?
I have not been able to find much info on these but getting addicted to staring at the weird stuff growing on top of my beer. Keen to hear your opinions. Cheers
