I've only done 2 batches of starter wort coz it's a bit cheaper and really convenient. 4 x hdpe 2.5lt cubes. The 2nd batch I made with JW pills coz that's what I had the most of. It was also the first time I used a new pickup tube made from a 1/2" brass compression bit and copper tube both from Bunnings, in my biab kettle. I had cleaned everything with sp before use.
Anyone had this kinda dirty looking break? I just did starter that I don't trust. The smack pack swelled but there was no krausen in the conical and it doesn't look like there was any increase in yeast. Can't remember if I've had it in a regular brew coz I'm shit at keeping records. I read one post about it on HBT but no info in it.
Edit. The wort colour was off looking too and I meant JW pils. I try and avoid pills.
