I racked a pale ale one week ago. I was going to brew a cream ale and toss on the pale ale cake.
One week has passed and I haven't brewed the cream ale. The yeast cake is in the fermenting bucket and has about 1/4-1/2 inch of beer on top of it. Fermenter is sealed with lid on top and stored in the basement at a 58 degree temp.
Assuming proper sanitation and ignoring the "yeast cake will be explosive", is a one week old yeast cake ok to use?
