I would like to use the yeast currently in the fermenter (Wyeast 3726) to do our next 3 batches. We will be doing another saison, an IPA, and a porter. (I know it's not standard for this yeast, but we're going to give it a shot).
Can we use the one cake for all three batches, or should we wash it, pitch into a starter and go from there? I know people pitch directly on the cake, which I'm comfortable with, but I don't think you can do that 3 times in a row.
What would be the best approach to reusing this yeast 3 more times?
