I want to step-up a starter (2 days on a stir plate with 1 liter of wort and a Wyeast smack pack);
Now I want to step it up to 2 liters, adding a fresh liter of wort. Do you recommend
a) decanting the existing wort before adding fresh wort or
b) adding the new wort on top of the old?
Regardless of answer: Why?
I've read lots of brewing books, but don't see any clear answer to this simple question.
