So I am planning on making a 2.25 gallon batch of American imperial stout shortly and need help choosing a yeast. The OG will be 1.125
This is by far the highest gravity beer I have ever attempted to brew.
Initially, I was going to use two packets of US-05 but now I don't think it will work with a gravity that high.
Would WLP001 California ale work with a huge starter? Is there a better choice out there that will ferment clean and not stall out?
Any experiences with American imperial stouts?
