Rather than pitching a fresh pouch of yeast into every batch of beer, most professional breweries reuse yeast harvested from prior batches. And that practice is commonly replicated at the homebrew level. But how best to do it, and what are the limitations? Brülosophy contributor Jordan Folks has harvested yeast for reuse over one hundred times and he’s going to show us exactly how he does it. Plus we’re going to look at the results of an exBEERiment to see if blind tasters could tell the difference between a beer brewed with harvested yeast versus one brewed with a packet of fresh yeast.
