I've made starters plenty of times, but am currently working on "stepping up" my first starter. After looking at the calculations a couple different ways, I decided on starting with a 1L starter, decanting, and then stepping it up with another 1L starter. However, now that I've got it going, I read where Mr Malty recommends against the same starter size with both steps because it can be overpitching the yeast.
Anyone have any experience with this they can share? What are the downsides to what I did (if any), and am I going to notice anything in the final beer? Thanks!
