Hey,

Do you re-pitch yeast after that 4-6month aging period? Meaning if I want to bottle, do I need to add more yeast during the bottling?

I keg, so need to repitch in my circumstance. I would guess repitching would be a good idea for bottling though. Adding further clarification to something I noticed in my recipe. When I sour at 120deg that involves draining off the wort into a fermenter and keeping it at 120 for a few days. This allows the souring to occur and then be halted once a desired level of sourness has been achieved.
