Hey everyone,
I have been building up to all grain the last couple months, gathering equipment, knowledge, etc. so my much anticipated first AG brew day will be this weekend!
I am also planning on doing a starter for the first time with my Wyeast 1010 smack pack. My question on that is kind of two-fold. First, should I activate the smack pack for a few hours before pitching to the starter? Second, is it beneficial to also add yeast nutrient to the starter?
Just wondering if this is overkill or if it is a good way to go about the process.
Thanks!
