G'day,
I have a yeast starter I made about 2 months ago for a brew I didn't end up doing. It has been sitting in the fridge, in a sterile jar, since then. The yeast was a liquid snap pack type which I added to a 1l DME starter.
Just wondering if I can turn this old starter into a vibrant yeast again by building it up with another few starters over a week or so. Would there be a risk of off flavours from the yeast mutating , autolysis, or possible infection.
As for infection, it looks ok, but I've never had any infections with my brewing so I'm not sure what to look for. The jar is one of those push on top coffee jars.
