Just wondering if the type of glass you store the yeast in will impact how long it will remain viable. Such as if you store in clear glass you get X months. But if you store in amber/brown glass you get Y months. I cleaned out a bunch of brown glass (vitamin) bottles yesterday, that I plan to sanitize and use to store my washed yeast in. Once I've figured out how much volume each one holds that is. I plan on labeling each bottle with what strain is in it, plus which generation it is, and then keeping in the cooler part of the fridge.
If the brown glass will be better, then I'll also have family members save their bottles for me, so that I can get a good sized stockpile going. The will be easier to store in the fridge, that's for certain (due to a more compact size)...
