Here's the scenario: 5.5 gallon batch, 1.055 gravity, WLP810 yeast. Yeast calculator settings: Pro Brewer 1.5 (Lager), 3 (THREE!!) vials of fairly fresh (30-day) yeast.... Calculator says still need a 2-liter starter?
Really?!!
I just refuse to believe that 3 times the manufacturer's recommendation (5 gallons of less than 1.060 gravity wort per 1 vial before best-by date) is not enough.
Need to nail the fermentation because A) ...competition brew and B)...relatively schedule, so don't want to take any chances.
Thoughts?
