I've got some Wyeast 1098 that I washed from a batch in mid Feb 2008. I'm brewing in 48 hours and am trying to decide when to make the starter. I realize it's probably too late to let it ferment out fully and just pitch the yeast, so i'm planning on pitching the whole thing at high krausen. Usually I make my starters around 24 hours before if I'm going to pitch the whole thing, but I'm wondering if since this yeast has been washed if i'm going to experience some lag time in my starter. I've never repitched washed yeast before, so I don't know what to expect.
I've got what appears to be about 1 to 1.5 oz of wash yeast sediment and I was going to pitch that into a 1L starter. It's a 5 Gallon batch with an OG of 1.060.
