This is my first attempt at making a lager after making numerous ales. I essentially got a "kit" from a local brewery and it came with one packet of Saflager Lager 34/70. The OG is 1.077 and from the research I did, it didn't seem like it was going to cut the mustard, so I bought one more packet. I didn't make a starter, but re-hydrated the yeast before pitching it. I just wanted to make sure I didn't throw too much in.
Also they recommend throwing in a packet of yeast during bottling after 7-10 days primary and 2-3 weeks secondary and I was wondering if that was necessary? I was going to forgo doing that, but i've never made a lager yet.
