Ok so I have heard both sides of using a starter and not. Up to this point have done alright without one and just compensated by using a second packet of yeast for my higher gravity brews but am curious to see if it makes a difference.
Question is is a 2l starter the best way to go? I am still doing just 5 gallon batches. Is a stir plate a necessity? And is 1 lb dme with 2 quarts of water the best recipe? Checked the internet but have gotten pretty good advice from here so far so thanks in advance.
