Yeast Starter

First- just let me say, this is a dumb question....

Does it stand to reason that if I want to make a 20 gallon yeast starter- it's just 4 times a 5 gallon yeast starter?

thanks!

 

Not a dumb question. It's not always that simple, there are calculators available online that will help you get a proper pitch rate. Try mr. Malty and see what it tells you.

 

Thank! I appreciate it. I am in the process of downloading BeerSmith- any ideam if it has it ?

 

Did he just say a 20 gallon starter?

 

Pretty sure he means enough to pitch into a 20 gallons of wort:fro:

 

yes. lol. A 20 gallon wort batch

 

I just wanted to see the flask he was gonna use....
