Hey everyone.
I've always been a fan of making my starters large. For instance a 1.086 IIPA I'm making I've made a 3.5L starter from an American Ale 2 smack pack. I expect 360b cells. A hair over what's required for the beer. I'll save ~50b by vol for another starter.
Is there any benefit when going from that 50b to 2-300b in ramping the starter size up? Why not start at 2-3L? What advantage is there to doing 500ml, 1.5L, 3L?
