Poached this recipe from a member here, and have it adapted to my system and such, but have a question about the pitch rate.
Is the default pitch rate specific to the selected yeast? It states Manufacturer recommended.
This is what is displayed in the yeast section of the recipe.
0.35 (M cells / ml / ° P) 255 B cells required
I have a hard time believing that 255 billion cells will take care of this 11 gallon 1072 batch.
Should I update this as follows?:
0.75 (M cells / ml / ° P) 547 B cells required

Not sure if I will kick this one out next our re-brew my Christmas Ale again first, but it is in the cue!
Feel free to comment in general on the recipe as well if you like.
TIA
