First top cropped yeast was a success, plan is to see how many times in a row it can be done.
After pouring out layer of green beer layer on top, yeast was not moving.
It was a hard packed dense yeast cake. Took 1 quart fresh wort from batch being
brewed, and slowly stirred in with sanitized spoon to break up, there was still chunks.
It was then put in a empty sanitized distilled water jug, and shook like hell
to mix well, then poured in wort.
Pitched yesterday morning, this morning there is a very large thick foamy
slightly brown top crust krausen head. Later this morning top brownish
layer will be removed and discarded, then beige/whitish part will be cropped
for second pitch.
Not decided whether to crop right behind brown head, or remove all and wait
for second krausen head to form. The first time removing all the krausen head
there was barely enough to skim off on second.
Cheers
