Ok, I have searched and have not found the answers that I am looking for. I had the idea of using white labs yeast vials and pitching half(or less) into a starter and building it up. Then I would re-close the vial and save it for next time. I figure I can get at least two uses out of the vial. I saw some threads of people asking this question but everyone seemed to add in the way that THEY reuse yeast and no one ever really had any experience doing this. I am interested in hearing from someone who might have done this, or from some very respected brewers about the viability of doing this. Of course I would take sanitation very seriously so as to not contaminate the yeast vial.
