Did a Bavarian heff this weekend with wyeast 3638. Holy cow this yeast is a madman.
Did a double decoction with around 78% efficiency. This yeast within an hr was already pretty active and within 24 hrs the krausen is easily a foot high…I have 6.5 and 7 gallon carboys and I had to attach a blowoff tube today. I hit it with 60 seconds of pure o2 and made a healthy starter too. Started at 66 and it’s jumped a few degrees but im hoping for a nice banana, clove and spice flavor!! Anyways just thought I’d update!
