I’m a homebrew noob learning to be a yeast rancher. I followed the instructions on inoculating slants from the sticky thread in this forum - so far so good.
It looks like the usual way to create a starter from said slants is to use the entire slant.
First question: what is a good assumption for initial cell count (per unit area of the slant surface)?
Second question: how do I determine how many steps my starter needs, and the optimal volumes for these steps?
Thanks
