can someone provide me a detailed explaination how to collect and reuse the yeast at the bottom of the primary? Im looking to store it in the fridge for a bit of time and then use it. Also along with it can someone explain how to get a starter going. Sorry for the dumb ?s im pretty new to this. Thanks
 
Yeast washing is easy!
I started 3 months ago, If you read that thread... Follow the steps it works like a champ!!!!

The only problem i have had with washing yeast is, After 10 times of reusing the yeast... I have to stop and buy more us 05 and start over.

I have thought about pushing it to 15 times, But i think after spending 2.50 on a yeast packet and getting 10 batch's out of it at .25 cents a use...I have gotten my $$$ worth.
