I usually throw some s05 in beers that have sat for a while to get the carbonation finished up. It flocs out well and can handle the alcohol content of bigger beers.
Next to bottle will be my black(almost) ipa.
It was in primary for 2 weeks. abv calc when I went to secondary was 7.74%.
Will have been in secondary for 2 weeks when I bottle.

Bother with more yeast?
If I do - right with bottling sugar or a day or two earlier?
