I have two jars of WY1007 slurry from a couple of 5L batches of Kolsch (don't have a 10L fermentor). This was almost all of the yeast cake. See pic below. Going to repitch in an Altbier.

What's a typical pitch rate. Will 1 jar be okay for a 10L batch? The slurry would be about a week old at this point.

If I needed a starter would I still use the same amount?

The Kolsch sample I pulled was tasting great, I think this may be the only decent beer I've made since April when temps were cool in the garage (don't have any temp control)! Going to leave it a month. Hoping I will be closer to serving temps by then as my kegs are in the garage.
