So, I made a 2L yeast starter for a stout that I was going to brew about a week or so ago.. Turns out I could not brew.
So, I took the starter and split it into 4 mason jars and essentially made 4 vials of yeast.. Then, I decanted all the jars, added all the yeast together and topped off with sterile water and put into a sealed mason jar.
My question is, can I now use this larger population of yeast as my pitching yeast directly from the jar, or should I now make another starter with it? Seems like I would overpitch if I made it into another starter....
Not sure if I should just dump this one and make a new one from scratch?
