I've been brewing for years and have made many starters but I've encountered a bit of a mystery. This week I made a Belgian Golden Ale starter with WPL570. As usual I used my stir plate to ferment the batch. Two days absolutely no krausen or evidence of foam. Never had this before so I assumed the yeast was bad and started over. The second batch was the same.
Is it possible to make a starter on a stir plate which does not exhibit any head or krausen but does produce a good starter?
