Hello,
I am going to buy yeast today and I will be brewing Friday or Saturday night. This is my second starter so I am a little ignorant with the timing since i have a weird work schedule.
I was going to make a starter today and leave it on the stir plate until Friday morning, is this too long? Is three days on the stir plate too long? Reason is because I go to work Wednesday morning and won't be home until Friday morning.
I have two other options....I can make the starter today and have my wife put it in the fridge after 24 hours. Will it be ok in the fridge for two days? My last starter I had it in the fridge for only 24 hours and it still turned out great. My next option is to wait until Friday morning to make the starter, ferment for 24 hours, then put it in the fridge for 12 hours until I start my brew Saturday night.
Any suggestions???
