Hello everybody,
I was wondering something.
I have a large amount of yeast that I want to use in 10 gallons of beer. It's probably an inch of compact yeast cake in the bottom of a quart Mason jar. I know it's enough for the 10 gallons but, it has been sitting in the fridge for about a month. I'm wondering if just a small yeast starter would wake it up. I don't need to make a big starter to try to propagate the yeast and build it up to a bigger amount. I just want to wake it up and make sure that it's healthy. Give it a little taste test tomorrow or something just to make sure it didn't go bad.
What are you guys think?
