Hello! I am attempting my first lager brew, have done many ales, and have a question about the yeast...
Normaly I use liquid yeast with a starter...
Planning on brewing a lager (5 Gal) with an OG of 1.045.
the yeast calculator is saying I need at least 3 liquid yeast packs (mfg date is 9/22/22) with a 3L starter (shaking - no stir palte)
Just want to confirm that lagers need a lot more yeast...
I may be over thinking this...
