    I'm gonna be brewing an English Mild this week and am probably gonna bottle condition it. I know I've heard that 1968 floccs like a brick and was wondering if anyone ever ran into issues bottle conditioning with it? Ill plan on sucking some yeast into the bottling bucket to be safe but wanted to hear some experiences with that yeast.

    Cheers
    Pat

    You will not have a problem bottling. Yes, 1968 flocs, but there will be plenty of cells left in solution to prime.

    I do not like bottle conditioning with this yeast, but pweis909 is right - There's still plenty in solution to carbonate.
