Just opened my Forza with plan to start it. The kit has two yeasts similar to a couple other eclipse / LE’s I’ve gotten lately. 1x RC212 and 1x EC1118. I had gone to removing the 1118 from purchased kits and swapping to the 212 so I’m happy however now they are sending both and saying to toss them both at the same time.
The last time I had this situation I pitched the 212 on day one, then 2 days later I pitched the 1118. In the end it went dry, but now I’m wondering if the 1118 really needed to be pitched.... I’ve also had 212 stall at 1.002-3, and nothing got it restarted so maybe so.
I think I’m going with the same plan this time and pitch the 1118 after a couple of days (around 1.050 or so and will use that SG as the guide).
Thoughts?
