So I have the supplies to start a frozen yeast bank (test tubes, glycerin, autoclave-able jar) and my buddy has an autoclave, but I couldn't find any posts explaining how to autoclave this stuff.
So how should I go about autoclaving the test tubes and glycerin solution?
Also, can I autoclave a regular glass jar? I will probably use this to collect the yeast after making the starter then pour from this into the test tubes (seems easier than pouring from the beaker into the test tubes, also then I can assess exaclty how much yeast I have and how much to put into each test tube).
Oh and the test tubes are specifically stated as autoclave safe and have screw on lids.
thanks in advance for any help.
