yeast starter with dark dme

[pmoneyismyfriend]

Do you think there is any problem with using a dark dme for a yeast starter. Traditionally I use a light or pilsener, but I had some dark I wanted to use up.

shouldnt be an issue

I just used golden. Only difference is the starter will be a darker color beer. I'd do it without any questions.

I would not see an issue especially if you chill and decant......such a small amount wont matter. Plus what are you pitching it in? Light, Amber, Dark beer.....?
