I just got done brewing my first batch. I made a Fat Tire clone and it's been in primary right now for about a week. I used California Ale Yeast (Liquid) and pitched at about 75 degrees.
Was doing some research and came across some info on yeast starters. My question is this. Are yeast starters always preferred? What are the benefits and the downsides if any? I have another kit for a Beartooth Stout that I plan on starting in a week or two and was wondering if I should make a starter for this brew. As always, any advice, tips, or feedback is always appreciated. I had a blast brewing my first batch and hope to graduate to all grain after I get the basics down.
Cheers!
