Before recently I never thought about propagating yeast. I think most serious brewers are always looking for ways to improve their beer and it was just a matter of time before I got to this stage. The first time I used it I was able to take some old expired dry yeast rehydrate and make a starter. I got really good results. (Eventhough some say not to make a starter with dry yeast I did anyway!) I can now start trying some liquid yeast and not have to worry so much about having it shipped or not having enough viable cells.. In my opinion this kit is the best available. So I'm quite impressed.

Normally I get fermentation activity in 12 to 48 hours after pitching yeast. Making a starter with this fermentation started in 2 hours. Never going back to direct pitching.

Decent price and has worked well so far.

A good value on the kit.

I have used it twice so far and am totally satisfied with my purchase.

A purchase you will not regret.

gave the yeast a good boost. only issue was could not apply direct heat to the flask (not borosilicate glass) but that is a cost issue and a water bath worked fine.

Love the starter kit. I can now have the peace of mind that I can get an instant fermentation start with no log time during which my brew can become infected. I am always sure that I have active yeast and get a good "bubble" in hours rather than days. Love it!

Good price and it’s worked great for me

Got tired of shaking bottle and that was my first batch. I put to much time in yeast sitting. Turned out worth it but this will be great!

Nice kit good price works good

Item was packed well and shipped fast. The stir plate works great and well constructed. The Erlenmeyer flask is a nice addition to any home brewery. Thank you
