So, I've read the sticky on yeast washing and I'm a bit confused. Today is the first time I've tried to save yeast. So, I poured some sterile water into the fermenter and swirled it around as directed. After 20 minutes or so, I have something like this picture 1. If I understand the process correctly, I'm supposed to leave all the settled stuff behind and just take the liquid off the top. But, by looking at this picture, it seems to me the yeast has settled out on the bottom and that is what I want to take.
I know there is going to be some trub that I want to leave, but by just taking the water on the top, it seems I'm throwing most of the yeast out. Can someone clarify this for me?
