Yesterday I racked a red ale from primary to keg. I left the last little bit of beer and all the yeast in the bucket. I put the lid and airlock back on the bucket.

Today I brewed an amber ale and poured the cool wort into the bucket with the left over yeast from the day before.

Is my yeast still good?

Thank you,
Jarret
 
how long did you leave the lid off? i've done the same with hefe/wit brews, and had good success. i never leave the lid off for more than 20 minutes or so
