Kick Start the Fermentation process

[pkolva]

While you are waiting for your water to boil at the start of the brewing process, try this, take one of your pervious home brewed beers and pour it into a bottle that you can add a fermentation lock too.  Then add 5 teaspoons of priming sugar and then your dry yeast.  By the time you brewed the batch of beer and the wort has cooled you will have some great active yeast to add to your wort.  The faster the beer can start to ferment the better.

You would be able to speed up the start of fermentation even more by using a little Light DME instead of Corn Sugar. As yeast multiplies it adapts to what nutrients are available to it so it can thrive in its environment. So if you start it with Corn Sugar and then pitch that there is some extra lag time while it adapts to your wort. Using DME makes this adaptation time much shorter because it doesn't have to change much to start full on fermentation.

Hope what I said makes sense as I'm not the best at perfectly explaining things
