Guys, I brewed a couple of beers to brew with Brett c alone. I made starters for both on the stir plate, volume was probably on the low side ( 2.5litres for 4 gallon batch ). They're fermenting but a little slower than I'd expected.
Since pitching them I've read a few more things about all Brett beers. Mainly that the starters need a good week to establish a colony. I pitched both starters at around 48 hours on the stirplate.
Anyone got any advice? I have a lochrositi vial I want to use but want to get this one right.
Both of the beers are fermenting, I just thought they'd ferment a lot faster than they are. The IPA I pitched some Irish ale to help it along after a week, but the porter I've let go, as it seems to be fermenting slowly but surely.
Over 10 yrs and still a noob sometimes haha
