I made a large (~1.5 liter) starter with a 300 ml slurry of Imperial Organics A20 "Citrus," which I think is the same strain as WLP 644. The slurry had been in the freezer since early June. I harvested it according to Woodland Brewing's sticky at the top of this thread. (This was my first time harvesting yeast, so I'm not sure if I did it perfectly or not. I did use glycerine.) The starter still smells like wort, not beer. Should I take this as a sign that the slurry is dead, or should I give it more time? I'm brewing tomorrow.
