Had 2 home brews with this hops. One was a smash and other was dry hopped with it. Both had huge pina colada flavor.

You could heat your strike water higher than normal say 180° then drain what you need into a 5 gallon igloo cooler. That should keep it hot enough to sparge with. Just add a bit of cold water to get strike temp to where you want it.

With that much head space would it not take longer for the airlock to start bubbling? Could be the reason it took so long to see activity.

Thanks for the info guys. I Made another starter out of one of the jars last night. Looks like it is doing fine on the stir plate. I am making a 10 gallon ipa with mosaic hops and el dorado hop hash( first time using hop hash). Pretty excited to see and taste the results of the hop hash. Cheers.

I made a 2000 ml starter of conan. I cold crashed after 36 hours. I left it in fridge for 1 week with foil on top. Today i went to split it into 2 jars and it is very carbonated. Is the yeast still good? Is the yeast infected. I dont see how foil could keep enough co2 in to carbonate the starter.

Mosaic is very fruity
