    yeast starter for lager in carboy

    You mentioned a 2.5L starter for a Vienna lager. Was that made with a stir plate? I have only done a few brews(ales) with liquid yeast which were low enough OG that I didn't think a starter was needed. I am trying to learn as much as I can being this will be my first lager. I don't want to...

    first time hooking up my kegs...

    I have the same style connector. You need to get a neoprene washer to go in between. They cost around a dollar on midwest. I would think you could pick one up at a local homebrew shop if you have one near by.
