I have a yeast starter question for the forum.
I made a starter with two packages of Wyeast 2278 Czech Pilsner Lager yeast and 2L of 1.036 wort on Sunday night.
This morning it appeared the fermentation was done. No bubbles, no krausen so I took it off the stir plate to let it settle out at room temperature.
Tonight I want to decant the beer off it and add another 2L of 1.036 wort on it.
I want to keep doing this until Saturday when I brew.
Do you think I’ll gain anything by doing this?
Theoretically I think I’ll keep building up yeast cells, but I would imagine there’s a point of diminishing returns.
Thanks!
