Hey Folks,
I'm new to the site, new to brewing, new to all-grain and kegging, new all-around so I look forward to having many many questions answered down the line.
I just started an all-grain Belgian Dubbel (beer #4) and am thrilled that I hit all my numbers for efficiency, OG, etc.
Here's where I am worried about things going wrong; The beer is three days old in my primary fermenter and I rethinking the yeast strain that I used (as in, not the one I selected). In addition, I only pitched a single batch where most of what I have read suggests having pitched a double (or even triple) batch.
So here's my question; can I or should I pitch another batch of yeast? The fermentation has slowed (I think because temp is on the low side, around 67 degrees). If I should, should I pitch the same strain? We're talking Wyeast 1762 as the one I used and Wyeast 3787 as the one I would have liked to have used.
Make sense?
Best and thanks.
