Hi all
I have just started buying better quality yeasts for my brews, and i am trying different ones: lallemand nottingham ale,and american ale, safale s04 and coopers ale.
Am i right in thinking that after primary i can harvest the yeast cake into tubs (everything sanitised of course) freeze them so i have a selection. Then thaw them on brew day and start them off on my next brew day as you would a dry yeast packet? i was thinking in considerably larger amounts...
I might be completely wrong on this so i thought it would be best to check it out first. It will probably end up being much more complicated.
Cheers guys
