Has anyone played with using a fairly hoppy starter to try and promote brett growth....but inhibit bacterial growth, from a mixed culture. Thing is, i have a BIG brett starter that say a bit long, got too much oxygen...its smelling a bit acetic. I also have some rather old mixed culture packages that probably have 10% yeast viability but Probably still have some lacto. Or say any dregs you want brett from, not LAB.
What do you guys think about doing a standard starter but using say...40 ibu, to try and stop any bacteria from growing out. Step a few times the sane same way. Sound feasible?
