So I was wondering about yeast starters over rehydrating yeasts and just adding on top at primary fermentation, what are people's views on these and what if any difference does it make.
Example: A Belgian Blonde
OG: 1.073 FG:1.018
If I was to create a starter and used just one package of Wyeast Belgian Abbey Ale II 1762 I would get the amount of cells I would require for a rapid clean fermentation prior to adding this to the primary and everyone would be happy.
But if I didn't have the time to create the starter could I just take two packets of the same yeast and add them direct to the primary?
would I get the same turn out? Or will I be adding to much yeast and end with sulphuric aromas?
