Ok - long time yeast lover (bread and beer) - but new to storing yeast captured from the krausen.
Can anyone give me some pointers on storing this?
Here is what I have done so far:
The yeast is actively fermenting right now and the krausen was so large it poked its head up into the airlock (and out into the fridge a little). I had sanitized the airlock and had carbon filtered water and sani in there too a little. So when I looked at at the airlock I noticed it had a lot of yeast so I sani'd a small ball jar and put the whole thing in there and put it into the beer fridge at 36*F.
What am I doing wrong and what can I do better here?
