Howdy,
I'm about to make a big yeast starter from a vial of WLP838 lager yeast, and can't decide the best temp to run my stir plate at?
I'm thinking that it should be cooler than the 72 to 75F that I propagate ale yeast at, but not as cold as the ferment temp. As I said it's for a big starter, so I'm seeking the best cell count possible when I'm ready to pitch and want an optimum temp to run the prop cabinet at.
Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks
