I'm not sure why I was expecting a long fermentation, but I made a 2L starter of Wyeast 1272 for a beer I'm making on Saturday.
It looks like it'll be done fermenting tonight, and for some reason I was expecting it to take a couple days. My plan was to toss it in the fridge and let it fully flocculate, then take it out on brew day and decant off most of the liquid and bring it back up to room temperature before pitching.
Am I going to lose some of the benefits of the starter by letting it sit that long after fermentation?
