Wanting to do a 2 bbl brew on our club's large system next year to fill a 60 gallon wine barrel. Shooting for an OG of 1.072 and producing around 62 gallons. Yeast calculations are coming in at around 3 Trillion yeast cells for a proper pitch.
How on earth can I can produce a yeast starter large enough to produce that much yeast? My 2L and 5L flasks are not going to cut it...nor is buying 30 packets of yeast.
Thoughts?
