Can you make Skeeter Pee without using old lees?
Thanks

Here is a good post that explains it. Worked for me. Post #8

I made a skeeter pee with a normal sized yeast starter... and the ferment took a day or so to really get going, but went all the way to completion with no problem.
Note that a stronger yeast starter would obviously do better, especially since the lemon juice has caused issues for some winemakers.

Thanks to all, I'll use 1118 with a starter and give er a try.
