I've just started using liquid yeasts and I'm about to do my first starter. I had a thought, and thought I'd toss it out to either go forward or for someone to point out it's fallacy.
When I do a 1L yeast starter and let it set for a bit and the yeasties start to multiply, just before I pitch it into the wert, what if I were to return the starting volume to the vial and refrigerate. How long could I continue to do this? Would I be able to get a year or so out of a single vial?
Would I be better off washing and collecting several pt sized starters after fermentation, if so why?
