I've been trying to harvest these dregs...
About 2 weeks ago I poured about 6 oz of 1.040 wort right into the bottle after I finished drinking it. Never saw a krausen or any kind of action. Then about 6 days ago I cold crashed for 2 days, and decanted. I tasted the wort and it was very sweet, no other flavors... Then I put 6 new oz of 1.045 wort in... Still no action.
I have been swirling the bottle almost every day.
There is a layer of sediment, what looks just like yeast, at the bottom of the bottle.
Should I give up on this? Does it just have a seriously long lag time?
It was bottled in 2013, batch #7
