Yeast starter

[Cold_Steel]

I am going to bottle some belgian yeast and I want to use my same yeast to ferment with. How much should i use? I want to use the same yeast. I dont want to mix any other yeast.
Thanks

Hi Cold. Your question is a little unclear - if you are talking about harvesting and washing yeast, and then using it, you need to make a starter with it before adding it to the wort.

http://www.mrmalty.com/calc/calc.html this is an online yeast pitching calculator, if that's your question.

I am thinking of get a vial of yeast wlp 500 and make 2000ml starter using a stir plate for bottle condidtion yeast.
I wanted to know how much starter should I make per 5 gallon batch.
