Morebeer has kits that use a single hop for flavor and aroma. They are set for 5 gallon batches. I was thinking of splitting the 5 gallons into two 2.5 gallon batches into the fermenter and using different yeasts to see what the effects are. My questions are: 1. Can I use my 5 gallon bucket fermenter for each 2.5 gallon batch? I have two and would be able to store both in the same place to keep all other variables the same. 2. If I buy a packet of both Bry97 and US05 can I dump the full amount in each bucket or it that too much yeast for each 2.5 gallon batch?
Reason for this is two fold. I have some homegrown hops, and Morebeer has the same varieties in their single hop kits. My home grown are still young, finished their first year this past year, so I don't have much at this time. I figure, by using the single hop kits I can get an idea of what each of these hops brings to the table and taylor future recipes to them. Make sense?
Any input is always welcomed. Rock On!!!!!!!
