I can't believe the answer to the above question is yes. I am asking it because I am going over my brew notes and have seen that when i have primed with 6.8 grams/litre of beer with WLP 001 the beer has come out nicely fizzy - just how i like a beer to be: properly fizzy, but not enough to make you feel like you are drinking sherbet.
Whereas i primed with 6.8g/l with a beer made with WLP530 and it came out way too fizzy.
The 001 was made in summer and the 530 in autumn, which i thought may explain the difference.
However, the batch the above 530 came from was split in half, and I used WLP001 in the other half. I primed with 6.5g/L and it is significantly less fizzy.
