Does Dead Yeast Add Bad Flavors/aromas To Beer?

[beerlover101]

hey guys, recently had a bit of bad luck (i bought and used dead yeast) and had to pitch some fresh yeast. my question is, will this dead yeast add any flavors at all, good or bad??

The packet of deaed yeast you added will act as nutrients for the live yeast and will be fine. Once the yeast has been in the fermenter for a while as the fermentables run out the live yeast will start eating the dead yeast which will produce bad flavours I think its called autololys. Any way thats the reason for racking to secondary fermenter after main ferment is complete. Your beer should be fine.

Dont stress, your beer will be juuust fine. As long as shes fermenting out now. i wouldn't worry.
