Notes

Wyeast 1450 with best by date of 4/24/23.
Manufactured date ~10/24/222
Estimated viability 15%
For 2.5 gallons 1.059 OG ale with 0.75 million cells / mL / degP, target pitch is 103 billion cells.

Make 1 L starter at 1.036 OG, should result in roughly 149 billion cells. So pitch ~700 mL of starter into wort and save ~300 mL for later for a future beer.
