I'm bottling in 500ml bottles.  8)
I find the beer nice but the whiskey has an evil kick that.does nasty things to me in quantities. My plan is to bottle.a.portion of this and stash it in  my grandparents shed that has near cellar temperatures. This has the added advantage of keeping me from drinking it :)

Evil kick... sounds good....

Probably a wise move to stash some of it away. Think how good it will taste in a year or two...? Magic.

was looking at how much yeast to use.  looks like 1 million cells per ml of beer so about 1 gram dry yeast or close to 10ml of slurry.

as for the yeast dont think it matters too much, the same or something with less attenuation will do. 
have some mauribrew that is a few months out of that that should still be ok or will just use some slurry from my current brew

Yeah I was going to bottle condition mine, just need to decide on what yeast to use. Bit paranoid about it not carbonating.

As long as the bottle-conditioning yeast doesn't attenuate more than the yeast you used to ferment the beer, you should be ok. In our case, us-05 is about as attenuative as it gets for an ale yeast.

As little as 1g, that's a surprise. Rehydrated i presume?
