Just curious what kind of yeast production would occur with each of the following step ups:
1) 1000ml starter, ferment it, add another 1000ml of wort to the whole thing and ferment it;
2) 1000ml starter, ferment it, decant the liquid and add 1000ml of wort to the yeast and ferment it;
3) 1000ml starter, ferment it, decant the liquid and add 2000ml of wort to the yeast and ferment it
I know the best scenario would be #3, but would the other scenarios be all that bad?
