Hey all
Brewday today so I got my WLP 001 yeast starter going yesterday morning BUT.. I placed it in the warm boiler room this morning and accidentally heated it to around 32c :oops:

1) Will it be ok?
2) If not, I was going to pitch it at around 3pm, should I made another starter or is it too late?
3) Could dump another tsp of fresh yeast into this to give it an extra boost?

Cheers
 
32c will most probably have killed the yeast I think.....
 
ive done over 30 with belgian strains from chimay and westmalle, but you should prob check the specs of they east online id say
 
Ok.. just checked up on it and it seems to be fizzing away so I think its ok. I added another teaspoon of fresh yeast so ill just pitch and keep fingers crossed

Thanks again
