I made a 1056 starter at the start of this week and decided to let it brew out. Its been on the stir plate since then at 19 degrees in my ferm chamber. It was 2 litres to start off with.
When I was pouring it.. I saw some yeasties on top and it started to look a bit thick and I realised.. oh crap I didn't cold crash it.
I stopped and theres like 900 ml in there.
There are clumps of yeast to the bottom and all krausen has stopped.. but the yeast down the bottom is just around the edge of the flask, about 1-2" around.. the magnet probably stopped it dropping completely with its motion on the stir plate.. but it has dropped around the edges.
Its going in a 23ish litre wort thats been cubed.
Am I safe, or have I wasted this starter by decanting potential 'suspended' yeast?
