I washed S-04 yeast for 1st time yesterday.
After racking beer I put 0.5 l of water in carboy, give it a swirl and left for 30 min. Then I decant some water until I reached that what supposed to be yeast, and pour that in 2 glass jars.
Result after one hour in fridge:
I hoped that I"ll get 3 layers (water on top, yeast in middle and trub on bottom), but there is no trub as I can see. One thing to note, I used hop bag and filtered wort before racking to primary, so I assume there should be few of trub in it..
I left it in fridge over night, and there is still no darker layer on bottom. Level of brown material dropped down under half of jar.
Is this usable, and what do you suggest to be my next step?
