Estimated, of course.
Of the two pictures that follow, the jar on the left is what I'm asking about. That jar contains 1318 harvested from the cake of a chinook IPA I brewed. In the photos, that is 21 days from harvest.
The next photo is what I'm asking about. That same jar had part of the yeast split for a vitality starter. The process - decant beer to sanitized jar leaving enough beer behind to swirl up into a big slurry. I regret that I didn't take note of how many mL of liquid was added to my starter. Here's what's left:
I'm trying to figure out if that's just krauszen on top of the beer or if it's, top to bottom, yeast, beer, trub. And...an estimated cell count. Harvested 3 months ago. These are quart jars. I think.
Thanks in advance.
