Does anyone know of a dry substitute for White Labs WLP090 Super San Diego yeast? I am not confident in my starter and I am brewing tomorrow.
I almost only use 090 and have used 05 in a pinch a few times. It is definitely not the same but I'm not sure of anything else that is closer, dry yeast is pretty limited.
I appreciate the info. I made the starter but did not see a lot of activity. I put it in the fridge for a few days and took it out tonight. I may just give it a shot. I am brewing a honey blonde ale in the morning.

Take a gravity reading. You may not have seen activity or notice a big difference of yeast in the starter but that does not mean it didn't work. A gravity reading should tell you all you need to know assuming you pitched a proper amount of yeast to reproduce in the starter.
Also- I always leave my starters in the fridge for a week and sometimes two and I have yet to have a fermentation issue.
