Can I save a smacked Wyeast Smack Pack?

displacedtexan · Dec 13, 2007

Well, I was going to make a starter for my next brew session, and long story short smacked the wrong yeast. Can I just stick it back in the fridge and use it in a few weeks?

I am getting a barley crusher for christmas, and smacked the pack for the brew that I didn't have the grains milled for, and the MRS won't let me use my barley crusher until christmas....

Thanks!!

I don't know if you want to just stick it back in the fridge. Go ahead and make a starter with it. Keep it going that way.

Been there, done that. Make a starter before you want to use it, and all should be well.

Well, there ya go. Listen to experience over speculation!
