I currently have small beers on two yeast strains that I am highly interested in culturing/washing for future use. Rogue Pacman and Chimay Trappist.
I have planned two higher gravity beers to pitch onto these yeast cakes in the next couple of weeks, and I am wondering if I will still have good yeast available to wash after a 1.090 or so beer has been pitched onto the cake?
I heard that it may be possible to "ressurect" the tired yeast, so to speak. Starting with a very small gravity starter and stepping it up and such.
