I've cultured Schneider Wesson yeast out of there beer. I always make a starter. But I ferment my beer at 70+. I reuse that yeast all year. The more you ferment at 70+ the more banana esters comes out. I've had the Easters stay strong. Everyone loves my beer.

If you were closer I would send you a slant or two of health yeast.

Ya I was gonna seal it off with hit glue or silicone. There is no freezer in this online a cooling plate down the entire back of the bar fridge.
