Hi folks,
I'm going to brew a saison on Thursday and have about 200 billion cells of WLP565 on the stir plate right now. I plan to co-pitch with YB Amalgamation but despite brewing many saisons I have never done this before. Any thoughts as to how many cells to target for the Amalgamation pitch?
I typically overbuild starters and save a portion (with the original cell count) prior to pitching the rest. I.e. for the WLP565 I grow 300 billion cells, save 500 mL (100 bil cells) and pitch the remaining 200 billion.
I'd like to do the same with the Brett. In that case the original package has only 2 billion cells.
Thoughts?
