So when I did my first batch of IPA a couple months ago I apparently visited a bad website on how to reuse yeast because it said to just put what's left after racking into plastic bottles and to just put it back into my new wort whenever I brew. So I did that, with the trub and all.
Tonight I'm having another brewing session so I figured I'd double check what I should do with this yeast. Well after reading up more I learned that I should have separated the yeast right away, and then made a starter yesterday!
So what are my options here? Can still brew, use the wort I make to make a yeast starter and pitch the yeast tomorrow? Can the wort sit for 24hrs without yeast?
Or can I just pitch the yeast/trub I have like the original website said?
Or can I go buy new yeast tomorrow and pitch it (again about 24 hrs later)?
Thanks
