43 Degrees North
I tried to pioneer a new starter. I had new new packs of Imperial Yeast and as I was boiling my water I was shocked to see my bags had partially froze in the bottom of my frig. I cancelled brewday and tried to make a yeast starter or in my case a Yeast resurrecter. Didn't have the Dried malt extract so I substituted 150g of Carnation Malted Milk in 1400 ml of boiling water. I had no yeast nutrient so I boiled a pack of bread yeast in a cup of water for 10 minuted to kill the active yeast. Cooled everything down to 80 degrees and mixed everything together.
So the yeast was going crazy to the point where I worried about overflow so I quickly rinsed and sanitized
a 5L flask, soon after transferring my mix from a 2L flask to a 5L flask, all activity stopped. I rinsed out my flask with Star San in chlorinated tap water, could a few ml of this water have killed all my yeast in a matter of minutes?
