Questions and Answers
Propper Starter
Propper Starter is a 16 oz. cans of condensed wort that is perfect for making yeast starters. Yeast starters increase both the biomass and vitality of your yeast, ensuring your fermentation goes smoothly and your batch turns out tasting great. Propper Starter Condensed Wort Cans are great for giving your yeast a "Propper" start, whether bring a lager, a high gravity brew, a yeast pack nearing expiration or just whenever a yeast started is needed. Quickly and easily prepare the yeast for your next batch of beer, cider or mead without waiting for water to boil and cool, or dealing with messy DME. The cans could not be easier to use. Simply mix one 16 oz. can of condensed wort and 16 oz. of bottled, distilled or boiled & chilled water to create your starter solution, add to a sanitized 2 L flask, pitch your yeast and add to a stir plate for at least 24 hours. Each 16 oz. can of Propper Starter makes one 1 L starter.

Want to make a Yeast Starter?
Home brewers are always led to believe making a yeast starter is for the advanced brewer. This could not be further from the truth. If anything beginning brewers should start with yeast starters. When you think about it they are nothing more than a small extract brew.

Great for Starters
It was so easy to do a yeast starter with product.

Gets the job done
I hadn't made a starter in years (moved to dry yeast primarily). I'd seen this stuff around but never really considered it as I had a jar of DME available for the same purpose...until I didn't. It's convenient and shelf stable which I can appreciate. Based on how many batches I do that don't require starters, this stuff meets my needs for when I actually do.

Easy and a time saver
First time making a starter. I watched some videos and it was as easy as explained. No time at all to get it started and worked as expected.

Super Fast! Love this stuff
Works very well! I let yeast and propper starter warm up to room temp by pulling them out of the fridge before I go to bed... Get up grab the distilled water (less than $1 at any grocery store)... sanitize a flask, pour in the starter, fill the can with distilled water to measure out 16oz, pour that into the flask, add yeast, magnet pill, and on to the stir plate she goes... Takes like 5 minutes.

Works but not that helpful
First of all I must say this product works as advertised. I used it twice and it worked perfectly. The problem is that it doesn't really save any time or effort. I still needed to sanitize my flask and airlock and I boiled the water that I used. So it would have been the same amount of work to use DME instead. DME is cheaper as well. I will continue to use DME in the future. 5 stars for it works, 1 star for it is not helpful. That averages to 3....

Q:
I can use dry yeast the same way as I would with liquid yeast with Propper? Do I need to start the dry yeast earlier or will it activate the same as liquid.
Asked by:
Jamie Moore
- 2/11/2021
A:
dry yeast can be used the same as liquid. The dry yeast typically will rehydrate within a few minutes once added to the starter

Q:
How long do these cans last in the fridge? I'm guessing quite a while since there's no real concern for how the starter wort will taste, they're just to provide fuel, but I can't find any information about buying a larger pack to just have them around.
Asked by:
Bryan
- 9/10/2019
A:
the cans are good through 1 year of production shelf stored in a cool dry place

Q:
Is it necessary to use a stir plate with this item? Will it work without one?
Asked by:
Michael Latzer
- 8/20/2019
A:
stir plates aid in the starter process but are not a 100% requirement. This can would just be the premade starter wort or " medium" we would use to culture the yeast, so it cuts the step of making the wort out of the process to simplify things
