I am planning for doing an extract version of The Plinian Progeny Triple IPA.
it's a fairly big beer with OG 1.090 and an unbelievable amount of hops.
I use dry yeast, US-05, and got two packs with this kit.
I'm wondering best way to do the starter, should I dump both pack into it, or just use one yeast pack?
I could also "double cycle" the starter. There's no rush with any schedules.. I might do this in about two months.
I've made a lot of beers, but not super experienced with bigger ones.
to ask another way, for a big beer -
1 yeast packet in a starter
2 yeast packets in a starter
1 yeast packet starter, and do a 2nd starter with the result (add 2nd yeast packet yes or no... and if yes, when?)
thx.
thx.
RDWHAHB (while you brew).
