Hi,
I am in the process of fermenting an AHS German Weissbier and after I rack it I want to reuse the yeast cake by just dumping in a new 5 gallon batch of AHS Hefeweizen straight into the primary fermenter. I also want to make some Dunkelweizen and a Weizenbock. I'm practically planing on going all out on german wheat beers and using the same fermenter and yeast cake. What I would be doing is reusing the same fermenter and same yeast cake 3 more times after this batch; there would be no cleaning of the fermenter, and I would just dump a new 5 gallon batch (right after I rack the previous batch to secondary) onto the yeast cake left behind. Would this cause any problems? Not advised? what do you all think?
