I have seen such things advertised for sale. I do not think mine was intended to be one but just is one now as a result of being old. So my plate is warm and my erlemeyer flask and its contents were warm.
It looks like it brought the starter to krausen within 15 hours. I am looking to make a larger starter than I have a container for so I poured off a liter of starter and added another liter and a half to the erlemeyer. But now I am afraid to cook my starter. So i am running it at 5 minute intervals when i can. Knowing that will aerate the starter without getting it too warm.
My question is should i toss the first batch of starter that was heat stirred?
Would a warmer agressive temperature negatively affect a starter?
How warm is too warm?
This is a WLP Edinburgh Yeast BTW.
