<p>I made a 1.040 starter of 2L and pitched the activator pack, then chilled and pitched the 2L into 8L (just slurry) made 8L: starter (all starters from extract) and did the same again only about 400ml of slurry finally into 23L brew, I was quite surprise by how little slurry you get from 8L starter.</p>

<p>This was a munich lager yeast. now on 2nd gen, also in the main carboy after first ferment the yeast packed real densely at bottom and looked like holy swiss cheese?, when i repitched this I had to shake up the carboy big time to loosen it up. not sure how 2124 behaves? but the munich was strange. Wyeast munich 2308</p>
