added link to Brettanomyces secondary fermentation experiment in Starter Information
===Starter Information===
When pitching just ''Brettanomyces'' from a commercial pure or blended culture and no other microbes, it is recommended to make a starter for the culture. If the ''Brettanomyces'' is being pitched into secondary, no starter is necessary unless the brewer suspects that the ''Brettanomyces'' has lost a lot of viability due to age, heat exposure, etc., or prefers higher cell count pitches(current information suggests that there is no significant flavor difference between high and low pitching rates in secondary pitches of ''Brettanomyces''; see [[Brettanomyces secondary fermentation experiment]]).
