I've used White labs pitchable yeast before with no starter and had zero problems. This time I ordered the yeast instead of making the road trip to buy it. I spent the dollar for the ice pack, but between work schedule and delivery time, I'm guessing the yeast spent at least 48 hours at room temp, some of it getting knocked around back of truck. The beer I'm brewing does not have a large OG and the date on the vial is for Feb 09, so I'm guessing the yeast is rather fresh. I put it in the fridge this morning since I'm not brewing until this weekend. Do the temperature changes dictate that I make a starter or should I be OK with the vial as is?
