Yeast Harvesting

Lazybrew · Jan 11, 2009

Anyone out there have some experience with harvesting yeast? I'm interested, but I am concerned with my sanitation procedures with my current equipment. Specifically, does anyone have an acceptable procedure to harvest yeast from a glass carboy? Or do I really need a conical fermenter? Comments please.

Do a search for yeast washing illustrated. It will tell you everything you need to know. I am about to try this myself for the first time so i can't give any advice myself.

+1000 on this, great thread. I did this for the first time last week, and it worked great. But you have to be sure your sanitation is good. Just follow his process and you souldn't have any issues.
