About me

Introduction Some of what you gain from doing slants is a) indefinite (practically speaking) storage, b) assured maintenance of the original generation, and c) ease of sharing yeast with brewpals. Also, when it comes time to make up a starter to pitch into a batch of beer, you get 500 ml of active starter within 24-36 hours every time. Finally, if you are doing slants, then when someone sends you a sample of yeast, or you get one from some other means, you can make yourself a renewable lifetime supply from that sample.
