I made 2 side by side 5 gallon carboys of wort to ferment. Potential alcohol for the wort was 6% Exactly as the recipe called for.
In one I pitched a vial of whitelabs british ale yeast.
In the other 5 gallons I pitched way more yeast 2 vials that I made a starter with each the size of 3/4 of a bottle of beer with the same yeast. The carboy that I pitched the larger starter into it already seems to have fermented out as in it's barely bubbling after 2 days. The other 5 gallons is still fermenting vigorously. Is this because the larger starter alaready got the job done in 2 days? I guess I could just go check the gravity but I haven't gotten that far yet Curious. I hope to hear the answer.
