So, I wanted to brew my remaining ingredients so I could go buy some more.
Problem was, I have enough LME and hops for two 5 gallon batches but only 1 pack of US-05 yeast.
So.... as you can tell, I split the yeast, started them in warm water with corn sugar, separated... while I was brewing my batches.
I put 1/2 a pack in each.
I was worried... but I am still seeing activity 6 days later and both buckets have krausen bubbling through the air locks ever so slightly.
Any known problems with doing this?
