If you pitched a greater quantity of washed yest slurry, could you forgo making the new starter? I typically collect slurry from the carboy after pouring off excess beer. I use these for three generations and then buy new smackpacks, make a new starter and start the process all over again. I never use slurry that is more than six months old.
I see how easy washing is, but wonder if it is worth the cost of making a new starter every time. I also see how many people advocate the practice, so I wonder if there is an advantage over my current methods that I am not seeing.
