Consistent problem with FIRST batch - Lager Yeast

[mje1980]

I do 5 litre starters from one smack pack of Danish lager for midstrength lagers ( 20 litre batch ), and pitch cold. For a batch that size I'm not sure show much I'd do but it'd be much more than what you're doing.


Let us know how you go mate.

Forgot to provide this link to a yeast calculator that allows step starters. If you use a stirplate then chose the K. Troster stirplate option.
