Wyeast London Ale

[chadm817]

I just got a robust porter kit from midwest brewing and I upgraded to the wyeast London ale yeast.

On the London ale package it says this yeast should be used with beers that the OG reading should be up to 1.060. And the OG range on the robust porter kit is 1.063-1.067.

The wyeast package says that more yeast might be needed if you have a higher gravity beer.

Do I need to get another package of yeast or does the .003-.007 different really not make a difference?

Thank you for the help!

You'll need more yeast, but you can make a starter rather than buy another package. Check Mr. Malty for pitch rate recommendations.
