Hi all,
I have two batches of beer going right now (Scottish Ale and Blonde Ale) and I want to try reusing a cake for my next batch of cider. They've been in the fermenters almost a month and I'm going to bottle soon. Are the yeast cakes still good? How long can you go before it's no good?
Incedentally, I'm trying to make a sweeter cider so I was thinking I'd throw it down on the Blonde ale cake. Maybe do a darker cider on the Scottish Cake.
Take care,
Jim
