ok, I've got a good idea of how this works and was wondering about some cheaper ways to obtain my yeast. Alot of the beers i buy have a bit of yeast in the bottom of the bottle, if i collected this from a few bottles... say a 12 pack of Blue Moon, and dumped it into a starter (1/4 cup DME and a quart of water) would this double my yeast and give me enough to use for brewing or would this yield a wasted 1/4 cup DME? Ofcourse I would be using this yeast for a blue moon clone and was figuring if i wanted the very same yeast they use, there is no better place to get it than the bottom of the bottle.
