Where to leave my starter?

[matt76]

I pitched some yeast into a starter yesterday and set it going on the stir plate - 40ml new Wyeast 1028 into 580ml 1.036 wort.

(I'll only be brewing 12L so don't need a huge starter)

I'm pretty sure it's fermented out already, but I'm not brewing until Friday evening so I don't expect to pitch the yeast until Friday night or Saturday morning.

Is it better to leave it covered on the stir plate, or stick it in the fridge?

Stick it in the fridge (remember to warm it up to pitching temp before you pitch)
