For my next batch I want to make a Founders Breakfast Stout clone. I have always been a bit lacking on bottle carbonation despite long waits, keeping correct temps, and making sure priming sugar is correct. I think it is often due to not dredging up enough yeast from the sediment or long primary or using a secondary.
So I was thinking of using bottling yeast and ordered some Danstar CBC-1

It looks to be exactly what I want. A yeast to put with the priming sugar to get a nice carb.
My question: Do I need to worry about bottle bombs? I get some carb usually; a small pfft, and a tiny vapor. Not a lot of head when pouring or carb taste thought but it is there. So if I add this in and there is already some yeast do I need to adjust amount added?
Also, I think I understand the directions but does any body have any real use advice on doing this? Worried about making sure it is mixed with it well to ensure consistent bottles.
