I'm all ready to make starters. Just got my 2L flask, stir plate, DME, nutrient, foam stopper, etc.
Right now, I'm between brews (need to buy more buckets) and just want to try to practice making a starter. I was thinking of trying to harvest some yeast from my bottled homebrews, but I'm concerned that my 2L flask is too big for the first step of harvesting bottled yeast.
Should I buy a 500mL flask or just use the 2L guy with very little wort in it? I'm thinking 100ml for the first step.
