I keep seeing that people only "re-use" yeast up to 4 generations. What happens after 4 generations?
Also, if I washed a yeast cake and create 6 batches, I can use those 6 batches 3 more times effectively getting 19 batches out of one? What if I used the yeast cakes from those 6 batches creating 6 more batches of each 2 more times..........you see what I am getting at.
Anyway, I need some understanding. Also, how do the yeast vendors do it?
