A was leafing through the Joy of Homebrewing and an idea popped into my head. Now that I have to mail order all my supplies I was thinking about how to save yeast for new batches. I just don't trust the yeast being sent in the mail (temp get way to high in the summer here).
Anyone done this before? After the primary is complete pour the yeast into beer bottles and cap. They should stay in the refig for a month or two don't you think? And I should be able to get two half full bottles if not more. Then just pitch into a starter for my next batch. I've heard of massin jars but never a bottle with a cap.
