I was just wondering how big of a starter you can make with a wyeast activator pack. I have read that you don't want to pitch yeast into a starter that is too large, so I want to know at what volume do i have to do the starter in steps. I am planning on making a starter for a belgian tripel that i calculated to need a 4.5 quart starter, but i was thinking that more like a 3 quart should be adequate, and desired due to the increased yeast growth and ester production desired in this style.
So, how big is too big to pitch an activator into?
