First off, I get that making a starter is not that big of a hassle. What I have a little confusion on is if the only real benefit of them is to increase the amount of yeast pitched into the wort.
Let's say that you wash some yeast from a batch and get 5 mason jars, each of which could be used to make a starter. Instead of the starter, could you instead just let them warm up and then pitch the yeast from 2 or 3 (or all 5) into the wort?
