Yeast cake idea

[willycoolj]

Have just put my CWTCH RED ALE KIT in fermenter, smells amazing, was thinking of adding the yeast cake from this and putting it in my young's American mocha porter, what do you guys think ?

This time of year I'd be tempted to pitch the yeast and leave the lid on until bottling unless you're dry hopping. It's this time of year is the most prevalent for wild yeast infection so I try and keep my beers exposure to the elements down to as little as possible. You could re-pitch the trub from your Red Ale to your Porter once you've bottled or kegged it. That's my tuppence worth, see what what other advice you get before deciding.

Yeah that sounds a good idea but I got Columbus and citra hops to add on day 4
