I have been averse to one gallon batches for a few 
reasons, e.g., measuring out the appropriate amount 
of yeast, maintaining the pH level, and clarifying. 

If you use 2 packets (10g)of yeast in a 5 gal batch, 
will 2 grams of yeast in a 1 gal batch be appropriate? 

Any ideas on what to do for ph in a 1 gal batch? 

For clarification, I'm going to use Bentonite. 

I nice thing about 1 gal batches is you can pick'em up 
and shake then the first few days.
