Since I've gone All-Grain I've been thinking about how to make a starter without DME - an All-Grain starter.
So, I'm thinking that if I just start out with an extra quart or two of wort at the beginning of my boil, I can freeze the extra (by taking it out before any hop additions). Then, a few days before my next brewday, I thaw this extra wort, boil it a little while and use it as the base for my starter. What do you think?
Surely, this has been done before, but I didn't find any info on a cursory search.
