I'm making a cider with some washed WLP001 and was thinking of using the yeast cake from the cider for either an Irish Red then using the Irish Red Cake for a Maharaja Clone. Ideally I'd be building the cake with the OGs. But I have a few questions. Here's the OG/FGs for the recipes:
Cider - OG 1.05 to target FG 1.005 (but probably rack off ~1.01)
Irish Red - OG 1.06 to tartget FG 1.015
Maharaja RIPA - OG 1.09 target FG 1.015
Here's the questions:
Does anyone have experience in using yeast from a cider with a beer?
Would it be possible to have too much yeast for a 1.09 OG beer - is this a good way to approach it?
