This is my first attempt at rinsing yeast and there are two distinct layers with the darker layer on top. I thought the dark layer was supposed to be on the bottom.
I racked the beer (Dortmunder Export) into a keg leaving about 1/4 inch of beer on top of the cake in the carboy. I swirled the carboy and poured everything into a sanitized flask, added some sterilized water and shook it thoroughly. Let that sit for about 20 minutes and poured the top layer into the quart mason jar you see here. After about 2 hours this is what it looks like. I'm hoping to pitch this into a Maibock on Sunday and wanted to get your opinions on whether this looks correct.
Thanks,
Ron
