I started an attempt at capturing wild yeast last night. I think there is a low probability of success but we shall see.
I am basing my notion on how to do it on how you would inoculate a batch with wild yeast in the old farmhouse ale tradition... just on a MUCH smaller scale. I figure if the wort ferments I will try and isolate some strains and see if anything makes tasty beer. That is of course if I managed to get anything that will ferment wort.
more notes and pictures to come.
Stand back I'm doing science! excited.. and anticipating massive failure..
