    Can yeast nutrient make up for low cell count?

    So if Im reading this right, you pitch small starter into primary with cooled wort then when your wort reaches high krausen, you pitch the larger starter?

    Good read - thank you I may have to try this SNS method.

    Can yeast nutrient make up for low cell count?

    So you just shake the wort starter after its cooled and before adding the yeast packet? Then just let it sit for 24 hrs? No stir plate?

    ahh so stepping up is like making a starter from a starter, correct?

    Can yeast nutrient make up for low cell count?

    "What is actually better, is making a stepped up starter out of a small amount of that slurry" How do I make a stepped up starter? Sorry just dont understand the lingo. Also on that second part, say I dont plan to brew again for a month, how would I keep that keg with the yeastcake fresh? I...

    Can yeast nutrient make up for low cell count?

    Thank you all for your input. I have been re-harvesting yeast but always afraid Im not getting enough out of it. Ive collected both after primary and after the keg is kicked. I have them labeled as such. Im pretty sure I will get more healthy cells from the primary but Ive heard you caneven...

    Can yeast nutrient make up for low cell count?

    Can yeast nutrient make up for low cell count?

    Wouldnt using two packs be considered "over-pitching"?

    Can yeast nutrient make up for low cell count?

    Making a 4.5gal batch of 7% IPA. (1.072OG) Using yeast calculator it says I need somewhere near 224 Billion cells. I would rather not make a starter and would like to try Omega's Tropica IPA liquid yeast which boasts a cell count of 200 billion. Will yeast nutrient help make up the difference...

    3 way liquid splitter?

    I may be over thinking this but perhaps someone here could point me in the right direction. My 2 friends and I brew large 12 gallon batches which we split into 3 - 5 gallon cornys for fermentation. Trying to put an equal amount in each keg has been a pain as we have no 4 gallon marks on the...

    Looking to add Blueberry flavor to a Cream Ale... suggestions?

    Yeah those are the ones I was looking at. I think $30 for 2 oz is ridiculous tho - then tack on another $10 for shipping. Crazy. I might splurge for this tho - 2 bottles of this plus shipping is $35 Natural Blueberry Artisan Flavor

    Looking to add Blueberry flavor to a Cream Ale... suggestions?

    There is a nice puree out there that reviewers have said does an excellent job but having a hard time justifying the price. $33 + shipping which they say would be enough for 2 5 gallon batches. I dont want a tart taste the the beer just a slight blueberry taste. Are there any extracts out...
