I am getting ready to make a Duvel clone, and the recipe calls for a 3 quart yeast starter. I have a pack of Wyeast 1388 liquid yeast.
I have Palmer's book How to Brew. He says to use 2 cups of water and 0.5 cups of DME to make a yeast starter. This won't make anywhere near 3 quarts of starter. Do I just use more water and DME, enough to make 3 quarts, and pitch the yeast into that? Or is there some other method? Will one pack of yeast be enough?
Any pointers anyone can give here would be greatly appreciated!
