Propagating yeast in a starter has become a common way brewers ensure they're pitching viable yeast, which has the benefit of quick starts and healthy fermentations. Certain styles require larger starters to propagate the recommended cell count, and in these situations, the brewer is left to decide whether to decant the bulk of the starter beer or pitch the whole shebang. In this episode, Marshall and contributor Brian Hall talk about the pros and cons of decanting yeast starters as well as the results of an xBmt on the topic. The Brülosophy Podcast is brought to you by Imperial Yeast who provide brewers with the most viable and fresh yeast on the market.
