Okay, planning on brewing this weekend, and i am planning on using some washed yeast. (Did this for the first time, about 2 weeks ago). So I am not clear on how big my starter needs to be. (I have also never used a starter so this is also a first). I was tyring to use BrewTargets Pitch Rate calculator and it is saying 2.5 gallons, so not sure what i need to change there. I noticed aeration method changes results drastically. I just plan on swirling it around everyonce in a while...
Doing an 8.5 gallon batch, OG is 1.07. How do i determine the size of the starter for washed yeast, vial, or smack pack?
Thanks!
