    Function starterGrowth

    The starter wort and the growth model, re-exported so callers can import everything starter-related from here. The header explains why they live in starter-growth.ts.

    • Grow a pitch in a starter.

      inoculation = cells / DME
      new cells = growthRate(inoculation, method) × DME
      final = cells + new

      Cells are never lost here. The model's floor is zero growth, so a starter pitched too thick returns what went in. The cells are still alive, they just had nothing to eat.

      Parameters

      • initialCellsBillion: number
      • dmeGrams: number
      • method: StarterMethod = 'stir-plate'

      Returns StarterYield
