Hi, all,
Been making starters for some time now. Before getting a stir plate for Christmas, it was obvious when there was activity and when high krausen's been reached. The stir plate seems to conceal that because everything's always in motion. How do you "prove" the yeast and get a feel for it with a stir plate?
As an aside, when pitching my WL vials into the starter last night, they blew all over the place, spilling probably a 1/4 vial each. Problem? Just roll with it?
Thanks.
