CarlLBC said:what I do for my 10 gallon brews is a 2 liter starter a week before brew day and another 2 liter starter 3 days before and it starts fermenting within 12 hours and seemed to finish in 5 or 6 days. I think thats pretty good for a lager.

Perfect solution
Ok, one more question,
Will I be ok just pouring off the liquid and pitching the slurry at the appropriate temp after fermentation has subsided? I mean, is there still lots of yeast that will be free floating in the solution? Is it a better idea to chill the starter after fermentation and then pour off the liquid, then bring the slurry back up to pitching temp and pitch?
