If you are planning on pitching a lager yeast starter chilled to fermenting temperature what is the best way to do this? Ferment the starter at this temp the whole time or ferment the starter at room temp and then chill to fermenting temperature before pitching?
Second question is, if you do keep the starter chilled to fermenting temperature the whole time is the 24-48 hours still recommended before pitching or should you wait longer since the yeast will not reproduce as fast at cooler temps?
Third question. should the yeast packet rest at room temp before putting into the starter wort or also keep it at fermenting temp?
