Yeast Blend Starter?

mo_feezy · May 15, 2013

I am brewing a cream ale with the WLP080 Cream Ale yeast blend. Should I make a starter or will that change the yeast proportions too much? I've done sours where there was specifically a recommendation to NOT make a starter for this reason.

Just looking for some ideas one way or the other.

Sours are different and your are looking for those off flavors you want to avoid in a lot of other beers. I would definitely make a starter, how big would depend on the viability of the yeast and your OG.
