Hola Caballeros Y Damas (Good after noon Gentlemen and ladies)
Ok so maybe this is a lame and talked to death question but here goes anyways...
Brew Date: 10.18.2016 (saturday) and I used the
SHAKEN NOT STIRRED method on both worts
Brewed 2 batches of 5 gallon 1.050 OG beer using 2 different yeast. Wyeast 138 London ale III and the other WLP001
Question: Reusing Repitching yeastI want to try to reuse these same yeast and brew another 2 batches of same OG / 5 gallons
I used the shaken not stirred method I used 1 pack and 1 liter of water and 104+ oz of DME/ 1.040 OG
I shook the heck out of it.. then pitched 12/16 hrs later, all of it...
My point is that's all measured out.. the yeast as it was in a packet or vial as well as the dme/ water ratio.
I see videos of people just adding the fermenter slurry into jars and doing the whole let it settle, etc... and decant and repeat till you have clean yeast.. how do they know how much to use again???
So I have a 5000 ml flask if that matters with of 1000ml marks up too the 5000Ml
How do you know how much yeast/ amount to re-use
