Probably equivalent to making a healthy starter. Rock on.

I am not sure about 2 x pitching. I think it is way better to do a strong starter. lets all keep thinking beyond recipes. later john O-my God, love the cast and all the interest.

I'm thinkin it's mold- should I throw it out? Is there anything I can do or is this batch toasted? I can send a picture of it if that helps. help.

I was wondering if you know anything about using molasses to prime beer? If so what amount would be used and what could I expect from it? I was going to use it in a stout I made. Thanks and keep up the good work! Hey- love the podcast! I was wondering if you know anything about using molasses to prime beer? If so what amount would be used and what could I expect from it?
