Stir Plate

[Phil28307]

How long should I run my stir plate for when making a yeast starter?

I do 24 hours

I do 48 hours. 24hrs on the plate then 12hrs resting and then 12hrs cold crash. I then pour off the wort efore I start my brew, and shoot for a 50/50 mix then swirl (or put back on the stir plate) until ready to pitch. Most yeast start action within 4-5 hours.
