I have a first step yeast starter rumbling gently on my kitchen counter. I'm planning on doing a second step before I brew. I'm wondering how many hours I should generally alot for each step.
24 hrs? 36 hrs? more? The wort I used was at 1.04 OG. Bubbles have slowed to about 2/min after 36 hours. Are bubbles a good gauge?
I'm out of DME, so I won't start the second step till tonight when I get home tonight. Hoping to reach a good cell count by Saturday morning-ish.
