Received a kit order from AHS today. I was lead to believe on a mother thread that I started that I would need a yeast starter for liquid yeast. I read through the notes on the test tube and this is what they included (this EXACTLY what it says on the label
"If OG is over 1.070, if the yeast is past it's 'best before' date or if a faster start is desired, a 1-2 pint activator (yeast starter) can be made."
According to the instructions included, the original specific gravity should be about 1.056. This doesn't suggest to me that I absolutely need to make a starter. Any thoughts on which road I should take?
