I'm going to try a white beer recipe but I only want to make a gallon. Sticking with the recipe I've ordered a batch of WLP410, which is obviously for a much larger batch.
What are the best steps for me to take in order to brew the gallon but keep a suitable amount of the yeast available for a full batch at a later date?
I'm guessing I would be best to make a 2L starter, use 0.25L or something like that for the gallon? What do I do with it afterwards? Fridge storage? How long is it good for?
Any help would be appreciated, I have done a bit of searching but a lot of the information seems to be based on assumptions of knowing what you are doing..... please spell it out for me as I have no idea
