    First Time Using Slurry.... Not sure what to do

    So a bit of a back story, I got a SS Brew bucket for my B-Day back in June and when that batch was done I wanted to save some of the slurry. I usually over build a starter but didn't this time because I'm lazy. So once my brew was completed and kegged, I decided last minute to save some of...

    How long before harvest Yeast is unusable?

    I found some harvested yeast in the back of my kitchen fridge, not sure how it got there, but none the less I have 25ml of WLP001 from probably 8 months ago. Would this still be good to use? Whats the best course of action to see if its viable? Build a starter and see if it takes off?

    How does everyone store their Specialty Grains?

    I currently have them in zip lock bags loosely on a shelf. I think I'm going to get a few small air tight containers and keep them in that. Stacking zip lock bags suck. Feel free to post some pics of your grain storage as well.

    Batch Sparge time

    I was wondering how long of a process everyone else's batch Sparge and vorlouf are? Mine was 45 minutes this weekend and I was wondering if everyone else takes their time with it? I don't mind the 45 minute process and I've also read that the slower you Sparge the sugars you will extract.
