OK, here's a noob question.. I usually use dry yeast, and I'v only experimented with starters a couple times. What I'm wondering is; How do I know how many billions of cells are in my jar of washed yeast? My jar is a one pint jar and has about 3/8 inch of yeast on the bottom. If I pour just the yeast into a measuring cup it measures around 15ml... Please help me wrap my head around cell count....

Thanks!

Estimates of cell counts can be made using percent yeast solids of the slurry. Percentage of yeast solids per volume of slurry can be estimated by allowing a sample to sediment under refrigeration and estimating the percent solids. Generally 40-60% yeast solids will correlate to 1.2 billion cells per ml.
