Loosing yeast count not cold crashing

[JONNYROTTEN]

I had nowhere to cold crash so I just racked to keg warm.If I reuse the yeast cake slurry have I lost a ton of yeast that went into the keg in suspension? Its been around two weeks since I pitched US05

you still have plenty of yeast to ferment several batches.

Yeah you still should have tons of yeast. I always rack warm as you say, I pour the slurry from the fermentor into sanitized mason jars and you can use the volume markings there to estimate cell count (I use 1Billion cells/mL of slurry).

Yes you have lost a ton of yeast to the keg but you still have about 4 tons of it in the bottom of the fermenter. (I might have to redefine ton for this, but it will be a lot in each) Your yeast cake in the fermenter will be plenty to do about 4 new batches and what went into the keg in suspension could do another one or two batches too if you could harvest that when the keg kicks. You have unwittingly become a yeast rancher.
