I got my shipment today (for the 999 Barleywine), and the yeast pack (Wyeast 1056) is swelled up enough that I cant feel the pack inside. I can't squeeze it enough to find it. Is it possible it's broken during shipment? Should I open it and go ahead and make a starter? I don't have any DME (what little I have is for bottling another batch) but I do have extra 2-row I could steep and boil. I'm worried I'll get brewed-up and have no yeast this weekend.. ![Frown :( :(](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
How much should I start with on the starter?
on edit: I'll take answers from anyone tho..![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
