I am acquiring 4-5 billion cells of a wild yeast and I obviously need to make a starter and step it up a few times. Question is...do I need to keep a certain ratio of yeast cells to starter wort? Do I just want to throw the 4-5 billion yeast cells in a 1 liter starter then step it up another liter, or with only 4-5 billion cells do I need to make a smaller starter like a .5 liter or .25 liter starter at first and then start to step it up?
Thanks and sorry if this was asked before, I couldn't find it via the search tool...
