I have been homebrewing for awhile and recently starting reusing yeasts. It has gone well and I like saving the $$, but with each reuse I become more and more paranoid. The idea of losing a batch of beer....
I'm thinking about abandoning my yeast reuse, looking for things I could check to increase my confidence or know when to stop reuse. I don't want to keep reusing until I get a bad batch of beer. I make starters, but not sure how to tell if the yeast has mutated or if it is wild yeast...
I was a lot less stressed when each batch was new yeast...
