Yeast in bottom of blowoff container

[RyanK2]

Can I reuse it?

I don't know...CAN YOU?

Yes you could, but WHY?

 

[Nugent]

I wouldn't. It's better off in the sink.

When in doubt, buy new yeast.

Ew. No. Totally uncontrolled sample. Plus it's probably mostly non-yeast gunk, proteins, soil and hops residue. Toss it.

You can use the yeast in the bottom of the blowoff container, but you need to prepare for it ahead of time. You should ensure your blowoff tube, container and water in the container are at least sanitized, and make sure that the container is suitably covered to prevent anything else from finding its way in there.

If you haven't sanitized the blowoff equipment ahead of time then you should dump it.

+1 to all of the other posts.

Why don't you just wait till your primary phase is done and wash that yeast and or pitch right on top of it?
