Hey guys
Ive got three 500 ml commercial beer bottles with about 100mls of beer in each of them and some Wyeast 1968 (have been told by the brewer that this is what they use)..
What im wondering, I was supposed to save some wort for my starter when I did a brew last night, but accidentally cubed the whole thing without thinking <_< Would it be fully nessecary to make a starter? Or could I just throw the dregs from all three bottles into the wort and hope for the best? I mean, effectively there should be a good build up of yeast from three bottles yeah? or not?
I jsut dont really want to go and pay $10 for 500g of DME, when I could get like, 2-3kg of Base malt for that price!
Help appreciated... I know if I do get this yeast working I have to keep it snug or it will crash out early?
Cheers
