My next project is an old ale, and I have one bottle remaining of my favorite example brew (bottle conditioned -- looks like a huge layer of yeast on the bottom too; score!). From some previous posts in this forum, I have a pretty decent idea of what to do, but what's an approximate schedule?
I'm assuming I'll have to go through at least a mini-starter with the < 1gm of yeast currently in the bottle, and then re-pitch THAT to get up close to the amount I'll need for 5 gallons. If I'm planning to brew just before christmas, is it already too late?
