I don't do anything; like Denny, I don't feel the need to do anything. As far as letting it settle, it has never really been an issue. If I am brewing on a Sunday ('cause that is what Sundays are for), I'll make my starter on Saturday morning and set the stir plate timer for 24 hours. By the time I'm ready to pitch, the stir plate has already been off for a couple hours, and there is a nice 1/2 inch thick layer of yeast on the bottom of my 1 gallon jug, ready to go do that voodoo that it does so well.
