1L starter in 2L flask for 48 hours
Fridge for 48 hours, 72 would be better
Decanted
2L starter in 3L flask for 48 hours. Kraussen overflowed
Fridge for 48 hours, 72 would be better
Decanted
About 1L slurry added to fermenter
Blowoff into sterile yeast harvester
Plan to re-introduce on day 3 or 4

Pitched Yeast at 63F, held for 48 hours, start remping up 3F per day until 80F

Krausen overflowed through blowoff into yeast harvester. Reintroduced on day 3. Overflowed again a few days later. After 10 days, I started dropping the temp 2-3F daily until I reached 58F. Sucked back almost a full 1/2 gal jar of star san. That is why I stopped.

Bottled 2/25/23
