I tend to decant as soon as I take it out of the fridge.

Same here but my timing was way off today

[flbrewer]

Just pitch it.  No decant this time.

Really? Thought that made for a foul tasting beer.

[brewday]

Decant would have been preferable, but I've followed along with your starter and brewday and at this point I'd pitch it.  It's happened to me more than once, and more than once those beers took medals.  It won't make your batch foul tasting.

[flbrewer]

Haha. I'm in no rush so if it helps things to let it ferment, crash, and decant again I can do that.

[brewday]

Up to you.  Either way, don't forget to aerate your wort.

[flbrewer]

I did aerate earlier. I think I'm going to let this keep fermenting through the night and crash/ pitch tomorrow. Should I aerate again tomorrow PM?

Don't let it sit.  Get that yeast in your beer.

[flbrewer]

Are you sure? The entire volume?

[JT]

Pitching at high krausen will ensure a quick start.  I would do this in a heartbeat.  Way better than letting your sugary wort sit.   

[JT]

And yes the entire thing. 

[JT]

One question, what temp did you end up getting your wort to?

[flbrewer]

One question, what temp did you end up getting your wort to?

It's at 66 now.

One question, what temp did you end up getting your wort to?

It's at 63 or so right now.

Dude, pitch that yeast.

[JT]

Perfect. Consider this: if something did get in your wort it has no competition right now.  Getting that yeast in there now stacks the deck in your favor. 

[flbrewer]

What do you mean? Pitched, brew day over. Must be a record!
