I'm brewing an NEIPA tomorrow and have two packs of Gigayeast 054. The pack says "starter required" on the front by the date and on the back it says it's good for up to 1.070 in 5 gallons. I expect my OG to be in the 1.050 range.
I'm brewing 10 gallons so I made a starter from one pack. I only have a 1k ml flask, so I couldn't use both packs of yeast that I have.
Is it ok to pitch from the packet? Or will the starter (1.040 OG on a stir plate for 24 hours) produce enough cells for 10 gallons of wort?
