Yeast Starter Kit vs. Yeast Activator Kit
Just recently started Home Brewing and my first two 5 gallons batches I used Dry Yeast packs. I was talking with a few people in the area that Home Brew as well about using something different. With a split between using a Yeast Starter Kit vs. a Yeast Activator Kit, I am still not sure which way is better. I like the fact that the Yeast Activator Kit requires little effort. I do not own the necessary equipment yet to start a Yeast Starter Kit, but it seems that the cost in minor for the equipment. Im leaning towards the Yeast Starter Kit idea, since it is a smaller scale model of the whole home brewing process.
I could use some Pros and Cons for both a Yeast Starter Kit vs. Yeast Activator Kit?
