So I made a yeast starter just a few minutes ago with the folowing materiels.
white labs trappist yeast
small pot
nalgeene bottle
large plastic stirrer
4 cups water
lots of love
I started by sanitizing everything in easy clean-pot, nalgeene bottle, stirrer, and measuring cup.
Next, I boiled 4 cups of water then added 1/2 cup of DMExtract. I kept it on high heat for about 3 minutes then took it off the stove steaming.
Next, I grabbed a few ice packs from the freezer, sanitized those then lined them along the pot's edges in a clean sink. The temp started @ approx 180 degrees then cooled down to about 85 degrees within 20 minutes.
Next, I added the trappist yeast with a stir then poured it into the sanitized nalgeene bottle with about 1-2 inches below the top. A sanitized foil strip seals the top.
Any no nos or point that might jeopardize the starter?
