I have some old 1450 that I am going to use for Denny's RIPA on Sunday, and Mr. Malty says that I need a 3 liter starter with 5 yeast packs, even with the settings at the less yeast packs setting. Would I be able to get away with stepping up one pack with 15 liters in a few 5 liter flasks?
The smack pack is from October of last year, BTW.
