This is only the second starter I've made. I'm using a stir plate. The first one I did on saturday morning, and I had a 1-2 inches of krausen by that evening when I pitched it. I started another from a different batch of washed yeast on Sunday morning, and it has been going for about 30 hours now. It started to get a small amount of krausen that afternoon, maybe 1/8", but it was gone by this morning. I do see lots of white creamy stuff swirling now, rather than just beige water. Is that be the yeast growing? It was done with 2 cups water, 1/2 cup dme on both batches. I planned to brew this evening, unless it sounds like my starter is bad or not ready. Any advice?
