malt is better for it
is this as it adds more body? and is dex still possible as i only use liquid malt and dont intend on opening it for my starter
i also remember reading somewhere that if yeast is in a dex/sugar only environment it damages their ability to uptake maltose
i ended up just boiling a litre of my old liquid yeasts and added to my yeast and far out after a day i had a glass jar explode and my pet bottles frothing like mad when realising CO2.
so anyone who has no dme just boil old yeasties and you'll have a huge starter
I saw in a post somewhere that a cheap and easy nutrient is an unwanted yeast satchel killed with boiling water.
Can anyone with scientific knowledge confirm this as it seems a bit like soylent green.
The closer the starter make up to your wort the better, you can even add a little hops to help the yeast get use to the acids in them etc, or so I've heard!
