Here for a SMaSH'ing good time!
I have been reading a lot about yeast slanting and it's benefits of having a greater chance of keeping a non mutated colony for further use.
My question is this, if you find a colony and then you have to keep stepping up the colony to a pitchable rate won't those multiple pitches be the same as a few fermentations thus leaving the colony again with a chance of being mutated?
I just started "Yeast" by Palmer so I apologize if that question is answered there but I haven't been able to get an answer out of Google yet!
Thanks!
