Hey guys....
I was all excited to try out a bunch of new HB supplies I just bought, and followed a hefe recipe to the letter.... including the yeast instructions for my White Labs Bavarian hefeweizen yeast "take out of refrigerator for 3-6 hours, shake, and open carefully."
Yeah... I opened carefully... but that didn't stop the yeast from exploding out of the vial before I was ready to pitch!! I wound up getting *some* inside the funnel I poured the wort into. Also, I mixed up some sterile water inside the vial to get what yeast was left inside the vial.
Anybody have this problem?? Any thoughts on what will happen? All local HB stores are closed and I can't get any more yeast until Monday!
