Notes: Add the hops and Irish moss as per the schedule. Add the Sumatran coffee and two chocolate varieties at the end of the boil. Allow the beer to cool to 68 ºF (20 ºC). Hold at that temperature until fermentation is complete. Transfer to a carboy, avoiding any splashing. Add the Kona coffee and condition for one week, then bottle or keg.

Yeast Type:
Dry Yeast Amount: (grams)
Cell Density: (billion cells / gram) cell count estimates

Cells Available:
110 billion cells
Pitch Rate As-Is:
0.42M cells / mL / °P
Target Pitch Rate Cells:
325 billion cells
Difference:
-215 billion cells

Needs starter (see below), or more yeast.

Part 2: Make a starter if required, supports up to 3 step-ups.
Yeast Starter - Up To 3 Step-Ups:
Starting Yeast Count: (Billion Cells)
Enter the number of cells you are starting with, or click the 'grab from above' button if you set up your yeast in the previous section.
Starter - Step 1:
Starter Size (L) Gravity (°P) Growth Model and Aeration

DME Required:
7.2 oz, 204.9 g
Growth Rate:
1.5
Inoculation Rate: 55.0M cells/mL
Ending Cell Count:
274 billion cells
Resulting Pitch Rate:
1.05M cells / mL / °P
Starter does not create enough yeast cells. Increase starter size, change aeration technique, or do another step.
Starter Size (L) Gravity (°P) Growth Model and Aeration

DME Required:
7.2 oz, 204.9 g
Increase:
0.8
Inoculation Rate: 137.0M cells/mL
Ending Cell Count:
496 billion cells
Resulting Pitch Rate:
1.91M cells / mL / °P
Starter meets desired pitching rate!

Dry Yeast - billions of cells per gram:

No one agrees on the number of yeast cells per gram in dry yeast!
This is made more confusing because each yeast strain has different size cells and clumping tendencies.
We put in a reasonable default of 10 billion cells per gram of dry yeast.
Kaiser located a study which reports the following data on dry yeast ranging from 8-18 billion cells per gram:
