In particular, my question relates to starters. I have an Imperial Stout (o.g. 1.096) planned for tomorrow and I need to know if what I am seeing on mrmalty.com is correct.
I have a single pack of yeast. It says that, with the yeast I am using (prod date of 6/6/2011), I need an 8.12 liter starer! Am I using the calculator correctly? Also, I don't think I understand how much DME to use. According to what I've read, it's 100 grams per liter?
Seems like an awfully big starter and an awful lot of dme.
Thanks in advance...
