    German beer recipes

    Thanks for the suggestions, still leaning toward an ale and not a lager, not Cole enough here in NC. Read some recipes on line about using a ale yeast for a Rauchbier. Won't be a accurate Rauchbier, but close enough. Any ideas with the yeast?

    First time reusing yeast.

    I washed a Nottingham yeast for the first time and I believe everything went well. I plan to use one of the three jars with a higher gravity black IPA. I will do a yeast starter two days before I brew. My question is, do I need to use more yeast or should I trust my yeast washing. I just don't...
