    I just like splitting the cake into three different pitches cause I’m a cheap bastard... is that a problem krustyman?

    Not at all if you are frugal/fastidious and want to store 2/3 of your yeast for a rainy day :slight_smile:

    You'll need all of it and more if not used immediately...the whole point for me is brewing on back-to-back weeks so I don't have to make a starter to revive my yeasties :grin:

    I make a small starter with some extra wort if slurry is in the fridge for more than a week. Not trying to change your mind on What works for you.

    Lol.-and it's all over yeast, lol. Guess I have done all of the above, dumped on the cake, washed and or saved in multipal bottles and not saved at all.

    Like Prepper says, what ever works.
