from what I've read about starters I'm under the impression to put an air-lock on the flask to keep the nasties out. the directions on my stir plate say NOT to put an air-lock on the flask, the yeast needs to be in contact with the air to reproduce. doesn't really go into any detail beyond that. this will be my first starter and first time using a stir plate so I'm a bit confused here. please advise - thanks ahead
