first attempt yeast washing by Glamisduner, on Flickr
I got 3 of these jars, 2 looked like this and one has two or three times the yeast an no almost no trub.
So the question is, can I use this for the next batch? Or does the yeast to trub ratio kill it?
Second question. After transferring to the secondary for dry hopping (waited 2 weeks) I have about another inch of trub and yeast on the bottom. Mostly yeast, but is it had to try to get yeast from the secondary?
I don't know how you all do only a primary, seems like it would be hard to remove all the trub and yeast that falls off without a secondary (this is only my second batch though).
Planning to cold crash then keg this weekend (been 3 weeks and another week of carbonation before its ready).
I had a super aggressive fermentation that went very quickly with this black imperial IPA and WLP085. (Austin brew exclusive)
