Recipe calls for two vials of yeast...

[JediMeister]

If I get one and make a starter will it be enough to compensate for not having the other one? Trying to save $6.50

Plug your yeast and brew data into YeastCalc. Should answer your question.

If the recipe is calling for two vials of yeast, it's probably a rather large brew. I would check with Mr. Malty. Often you'll spend more in DME than you would buying the second vial. It all depends...

The purpose of a starter is not to buy more yeast. Over time, O2 stones and stir plates save lots of $$$ on yeast.
