Brewed a tripel yesterday and got the wort cooled and in the fermenter.
My plan was to build a starter from Wyeast 3787 Trappist High Gravity, let it sit overnight, and pitch this morning.
I smacked it to activate only to have the exterior packaging splatter all over me. Not a great way to end the day.
So now I have 5 gal of 1.078 wort in the fermenter and will need to run back out to the LHBS today to pick up another pack.
Do I:
?
thanks.

Do I:
- smack, wait a few hours, then pitch directly from the pack (total time since cooled 20 hrs)
- smack, build starter, and pitch tomorrow with the start (total time since cooled 40 hrs)
?
thanks.
