Hi.
A couple of days ago I bottled my second batch. I harvested and washed the yeast.
I just finished brewing the wart for my next batch, and I want to reuse the harvested yeast.
Thing is - I'm not sure how to do it.
There are layers in both jars of harvested yeast - one jar seems to have 3 layers, and the other seems to have four (see attached picture). Should I use all of it or only some of the layers? If some - which ones?
Do I need to make a starter, or can I just use them as is (seeing as they were harvested only two days ago)
Don't know if relevant, but they were in the fermenter for 18 days, they are Nottingham yeast, and the fermentation was done any 17C.
Thanks!
