Old Starter

[chefbeer]

I made a 1L starter with WLP013 3 weeks ago and then didn't have time to brew. It's been sitting in the fridge since then. I'm brewing a low gravity bitters so would it be fine to pitch my starter, or would it be a good idea to build up the starter by a half a litre or so?

I have been in the same situation and have successfully pitched starters that have been two and three weeks in the refrigerator. I wouldn't bother building it up again, just decant and pitch.

Yeah, that's what I thought. I just needed some reassurance, thank you.
