Just about finished my first IIPA and I have both yeast available. I have read through several threads on the N Vs. the 5 but did not come to a clear conclusion on which is best for this style.
Nottingham has been very good to me in the past and has always been my yeast of choice, but if US-05 is going to make a better tasting IIPA I am willing to cheat on it.
Estimated OG - 1.083 (Based of pre-boil calc)
Desired FG - 1.014 (I want it on the slightly dryer end of the style, I mashed at 149)
I am leaning towards US-05, but I am worried it won't attenuate down to the level I want.
I made a poll. Because polls are awesome.
Thanks in advance for the input everyone!
