Re: Yeast starter calculator
You don't need to make a starter with dried yeast - just rehydrate in boiled cooled water, let the temp equalise with the wort and pitch within 30 mins of rehydration. If you are making a starter with liquid yeast - required if wort > 1050 then using a sample of the wort (diluted to ~1040) for the s...

Re: Yeast starter calculator
The brulospher has just done an exBeeriment on the issue of decanting starters vs pitching the whole volume. No statistically significant effect detected.

Re: Yeast starter calculator
The downside to pitching the starter at 'high krausen' is that you pitch a litre or so of shit wort into your beer. Not so significant in 60 litres, but I'd be concerned in 20 litres. S. cerevisae contends that starter wort smells foul when from stirplate starters because of inadequate oxygenation ...

I agree with roger, that the type of yeast used is not your issue. I would recommend that you rehydrate your yeast in sterile water at around 35C. wait 15 minutes and pitch.ensure temps are within a few degrees of each other (rehydrated yeast and wort). aerate your wort by shaking the fermenter vigo...
