That is exactly what I've been doing lately.Resurrecting an old thread.
I have used second runnings for starter wort for a couple years now. If the gravity is too low I boil it on the stove while my beer wort is boiling until I get 1.035 - 1.040. I then cool it, put it in PET soda bottles and freeze. Be sure to leave a couple inches of empty space at the top of the bottle. Essentially free starter wort. I boil it for a few minutes after thawing. This sanitizes it and you get the hot and cold break, reducing trub in the starter. After boiling, cool it in ice water to pitching temperature.
Absolutely. It wasn't boiled in the first place. Even if it were, I would just to be safe, anyway.I like that approach. Do you boil the wort again after thawing?
