Tiny batches to test yeast varieties

[BaldApe]

I've gotten several 1 gallon jugs to split wort and try multiple yeast varieties without having to brew a huge amount of beer.

If I use a full pack of yeast I know I'm ridiculously overpitching, but will that seriously affect my results? Is there any particular effect of overpitching that I should take into account when I compare?

Why use the full pack?

Just put the leftover yeast in a mason jar. You can pre sterilize the jars in a pressure cooker (lids included). If you dont have one just boil them before use.
