Harvested yeast from a stout. Can I use it for my IPA?

Just make sure to decant off most of the liquid off the top and you'll be fine. There is such a big difference in volume that you wouldn't notice it at all.
I kegged an oatmeal stout a while back, poured the yeast into a couple bottles, and let them settle for a couple days. Then I decanted the beer from the top of one of the bottles and dumped the slurry into a new IPA. Worked great and, even though the yeast slurry was kinda dark from the stout, there was nowhere near enough stouty flavor to affect the while 5 gal batch. Cheers!
