Bought some agar-agar from the local asian market, and isolated 3 colonies from each. Just wanted to share the pics. By the way, if you are forced to buy the "stick" instead of powdered agar, use about a half stick for each 300 mL of wort.
Have you used the powdered Agar-Agar (such as the Telephone brand)? I used that for my last set of slants and may have went a little stiff on the agar mix. They set up pretty solid. I used 12-13 gr per 500 mL and I think I could have got by with 5-6 gr. They will probably still work, though. Yeast seem to be less picky then I am....
