Im getting ready to start brewing a basic wild beer. I will be doing 2 sanke kegs on an annual sour brew day for the foreseeable future. I was going to begin by making a starter from some of my favourite bottle dregs and mix those with some ecy bug farm. I was going to put 3 oz of pre boiled oak cubes in the starter, reserve these when I pitch and rinse dry and store for the next annual starter. I had also planned to use 3 oz of pre boiled oak cubes per keg for aging.
So the questions i have are:
-Do I use bug farm for primary and secondary fermentation?
-do you rack to different fermenters for primer and secondary?
-Should i pitch another yeast to start, and bug farm after vigorus fermentation?
-has anyone made a starter with oak cubes? just wondering if I might be better to make a 2x starter and store half in the fridge for next year?
Any other help suggestions is appreciated.
