Pitch More Yeast After 1 Year?

[howephillip]

Hey guys,

New to the forum. Just have a quick question.

I started fermenting an extract pitched with Lacto last february. It's becoming a bit tart as desired but the yeast hasn't been active for a few months now. There's zero carbonation and I'm worried that when I bottle the yeast won't react with the sugars and create the CO2.

I have a package of Nottingham Ale Yeast sitting around and am wondering if it would be ok to pitch that and wait a week or so until I bottle. I just don't want the batch to go bad after a whole year.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Wait until bottling day. Add about 1/5th of that packet of Nottingham into the bottling bucket. That's plenty to carb it.
