So, im gonna try to make a yeast starter with yeast from three 0.75L bottles of moinette(belgian strong saison). I tried to use the calculator from brewersfriend but it doesnt really work(liquid slurry must be a positive number).
Ill have roughly 0.1 L of slurry and have no idea of how much wort i should use. i assume i need to feed the starter with more wort a couple of times aswell and i have no idea of the amounts to use.
I dont have a stirplate and i create yeststarters in a 4l carboy with a airlock. I need enough yeast to make 10 L of saison with OG around 1050-1060...
Can i do it like this:
pitch the slurry into my 1 gal carboy. add 0.2 gal of wort(grav 1040). stir it now and then, after (how many days?) add 0.2 gal of wort again, wait (how many days?) and do the same procedure again? til i have almost 1 gal of wort. let the yeast drop to the bottom and then decant the beer on top and then brew my beer and add this yeastslurry?
