Howdy Gents,
Just brewed with German Wheat, built it up a 1/3 of a 6 month old pack on a diy stir plate, 400ml then 1500ml. Thinking i would have had about 127 million cells. Tasted the starter and it was fine, smelt a little funny but i put that down to the oxygen and the plate.
Pitched at 17 and active fermentation started within 24 hours in 11 ltrs of wort, almost instantly stunk, just tasted it 6 days later and taste isn't bad but nqr, hard to put your finger on. Pretty sure it's not sulfur but open to ideas what the yell happened.
