Hi Guys, it's interesting to me to see so many yeast questions and Saison yeast threads.
I'm currently brewing a 3711 saison, and will harvest the yeast to add to a 3724 saison after fermentation dies down, (thanks Smizak!).
My question is:
When bottling my first 3711 saison, can I just keep racking with autosiphon, move racking tube from bottling bucket to sanitized/boiled erlenmeyer flask, and suck up the yeast to the flask?
Do you guys see any problem with this?
The flask will have boiled and cooled water to wash the yeast a little. I'll stick it in the fridge, to later decant and place slurry into sanitized mason jar until I make a starter in a week or so.
