pulled out 2 vial yeast starter this morning for a 10gal. brew.

i closed the cap on the grolsch bottle momentarily to give the starter a quick swirl.

i forgot to re-open the cap and continued to brew

4 hours later i opened the cap and of course it exploded.

i lost about half the starter.

i bought another vial of yeast.

what should i do next??
 
There's no reason to waste the other vial of yeast, that's why we're all saying just feed your current starter some more wort. You'll grow all the yeast you'll need.
