I'm currently under lockdown with the rest of the city of Wuhan, and I figure it's time to finally brew another beer after five or six months without brewing (kids and 60+ hour weeks). I'm going to go with a pretty basic APA (with S33 since that's all I have aside from bread yeast and a sketchy sourdough starter), but I want to differentiate a bit of it by using the dregs of this bottle to secondary a gallon or so, potentially as a starter for a full batch thereafter.

Does anyone know if Fantome Dark White can be harvested for anything other than conditioning yeast, and if so, what I should expect from it? The bottle's from April 2019 if it helps.
