Last Saturday I made a .75 gallon starter using washed yeast (1056) from a batch about 4 months ago. It was slow to start (which was expected) but I was hoping it would be done for me to brew on Wednesday (4 days). Well it is Tuesday and it is at high krausen. I don't want to put all of the starter in my beer so I was planning on putting it in the fridge tonight so I can decant the beer and just leave the yeast.
My question is this: Is there any problem placing the starter in the fridge while it is still around high krausen for the purpose of decanting the beer the next morning?
I guess my other options would be to wait until Thursday to brew or just throw the whole thing in my beer and use a blow off tube.
