Finished the yeast starter. I have almost 2L after the boiling 7.5 ounces malt sugar and a few whole cascade hops flowers for 15 mins. I used half spring water and half distilled water for the starter. I added 1 tsp of Wyeast yeast nutrient, to the boil as well.
I dialed in the air pump with hepa filter and 2 micron airstone to supply oxygen to the yeast. I also boiled the airstone in a small pot of water for 5 mins and sanitized the air hose in idophor solution. All items that touched the starter were sanitized or boiled (Funnel, strainer, etc.)
