Hello,
Thanks for the help.
Issue:
I went to pick up the 3278 Belgian Lambic Blend that I had ordered at the LHBS. Grains are being mashed at this point. When I got there they had misordered 5526. I have not used the 5526 before, so I am unsure of how to add it. I know I should add a standard yeast to bring the gravity down.
I have Safale 04, 05 and Nottingham on hand.
I am not overly concerned with mimicing the 3278, I just want a great beer after I wait it out for the next 2 years.
Questions:
1. What should I use as the primary yeast?
2. When do I add the 5526?
3. Any other actions?
Thanks!!!!!!!!
