God has sent us an angel! "The New Guy" at work? Yeah, he has a degree in microbiology and is an avid beer drinker! We just gave him those smacked yeast packs and he's going to build us a yeast farm. So, it seems I'm going to know a lot more about starters pretty quickly. We received our replacement packs today. As it turns out, the yeast pack we received for the mead is identical in size to the previous one, so it probably did not smack in shipping. The other three definitely did, though. We'll call NorthernBrewer and "buy" the replacement mead pack because we don't want to cheat them. Or, we'll just buy the honey and nutrients and make another batch. I like that idea better!
