I want to brew a triple batch of Graff soon and try to mix it evenly into three carboys with four gallons of apple juice in each carboy, each carboy with a different yeast.
I did a double batch last time and split it in two carboys, one with Nottingham and one with Safale 05. I liked the Nottingham better, for some reason the 05 came out a little butterscotch flavored, not sure if that was the yeast's fault. It's still really drinkable though, (to me). I used 1 oz. of fuggles hops and split the wort 50/50 last time. I primed them bot with 3/4 cup of honey and really like the carbonation. Any different yeast/hop recommendations/advice are appreciated. Thanks!
