So i'm preparing for an Oktoberfest beer and had some questions regarding my starter.
I've got a 4 liter starter using White Labs WLP820 Oktoberfest yeast. It has been on a stir plate at 50 degrees for the last 7 days. The thing that concerns me is that there is no Krausen in the starter. It looks yeasty, smells yeasty but there is nothing on the surface.
This is my first lager starter so I don't know if that is normal or not.
