this was taken from a book and only slightly altered
11 lbs liquid wheat extract
1.5 lbs liquid munich extract
.5 lbs 2 row caramel 40 steeping grains
.5 lbs 2 row caramel 120 grains
.25 lbs pale chocalate malt grains
2.5 oz hallertau hops although the recipe called for 1.6 oz
white labs hefeweizen liquid yeast
the yeast is about a month past its best before date and this will be my first time making a starter. mrmalty recommended a 2.95 liter starter but i only have enough malt for 1 liter. will this be ok? also, would a sanitized coke 2 liter be ok for a starter?
the book recommends fermenting at 62 F but i think i saw somewhere else that the WLP300 did best at a slightly higher temp
