OK, getting started brewing bigger batches. Going from standard 5 gallon to 10 or 15 gallon batches. My question is this:
Do I need more yeast? I generally use an appropriate Wyeast pack. But to my line of thinking as long as the yeast is there it will continue to multiply until the "food" runs out. So do I need to double/triple the yeast or is a normal amount of yeast acceptable? If I was to not adjust the amount of yeast would I just need to increase the time in the primary?
