I have a 1500 ml yeast starter in a 2000ml flask. After 36 hours on a stir plate there is still a 3" thick krausen head and it appears to still be growing/ fermenting. (1056 3rd gen yeast).
When can I pull the plug on this starter and cold crash it(like to cold crash for several hours or longer so I can decant spent wort and pitch only the slurry)?
Does one wait till it has completely fermented out or go ahead and cold crash while still fermenting...especially after 36 hours?
Oh...its going in a 1.045 OG amber ale.
Thanks.
