Started a yeast starter this evening, to pitch into the must tomorrow.
8 tsp sugar
1 tsp Tronozymol energiser/nutrient
1/2 tsp Citric acid (yeasties like acid environments)
Pitched 3 pkt Ritchie's connoisseur Valpolicella yeast
It took off instantly, and I had to quickly take the photo before it overflowed. (photo is less thn 5 minutes after yeast was pitched in!)
seperated it into two bottles, and keeping an eye on it as it is going crazy
never had a starter take off like this before.
ITS ALIVE!
