so I brewed two 5 gal batches today both the same base recipe
#6 light malt extract (lme)
#2 Amber dry Malt
#1 Crystal Malt 20L
#1 Crystal Malt 120L
#1 Cara Red
2 oz Golding Hops
Notingham Dry yest...
one I added some pecans to but the other I went wild and added #6 of brown sugar...Drinking home brew ......brewing home brew why not.....I didnt expect it to get to 18% about 1132og but it did so now I have to get some champaign yeast but unable to get it until monday I do usually have very good fast starts with the notty about 4 hours or so will the notty start and then I can add the stronger yeast monday or later and be ok? If so should I let the notty stall out before pitching the other yeast? any sugestions on what yeast to get? Also I will be dry hopping this any sugestions on that size style.
