Wow, 2 weeks in a defrost freezer? I would assume adding freezer packs for stabilizing would help for longer term storage, but that is still interesting to know.
My thoughts are that the day in the fridge will help with glycogen build up storage in the cell, and not glycerol diffusion, that should happen rather quickly.
This is good stuff. Should drive the point home how easy it is to make your own ready for starter yeast library. I've been using vials, maybe 3/4 inch compact slurry in the bottom (2-3 mls worth) and stepping up starting at 200ml. They're ready in 1-1.5 L within 48 hours.
