Denny, Mr. Semantics.  I find I get pretty good separation and it's become part of my process which works quite well.  I'm happy with the results so if it ain't broke....

Oh, I understand that!  But laziness always drives me to understand if something is really necessary and really produces better results.

Laziness is a virtue when used correctly Denny!

It's not "laziness", it's "conservation of energy".

Being an Engineer, your interpretation of laziness is wonderful.

Back to OP. I repitched 40+ times. Then I bought a new pitch (of the same yeast and my yeast is lazy and needs a lot of attention) so it depends. If it still performs and you like the flavor profile, repitch.

On recent tour through Germeny, the 2 small family breweries I toured get yeast from other breweries and repitch. Those places don't brew often enough to maintain the yeast viability.

Holy Mackerel!  40 times!  That is nuts. All the beers were successful? This is on the home-brew level?

Yes they were all good. Commercial level.

I was guessing that was the case.  Talk about creating your own house strain!

And quite fine beers from you, Leos. I can't wait for my spring fishing trip to Hayward, WI - I pick up a growler when we get gas at Eau Claire, but maybe I can convince the guys to time it so we can stop at your taproom this year.

That would be great. We just moved to new location. We are open every day.
