I started a pack of Wyeast L.brevis in a 1L starter 4 days ago holding at 110F. In anticipation of that starter working I brewed 5 gal 2 days ago.
The starter shows no real sign of sourness, I interprate this as a problem. Is 4 days long enough to decide that the L brevis was not viable?
If so what should I do? I'm considering yogurt into the starter, or sauerkraut from the organic store. How long do I have on this 5gal wort before it's ruin, assuming I have good sanitation?
Any other thoughts on Lacto sources?
