So I am taking a corny keg with me to a beach vacation tomorrow, so I transferred from the fermenter to the the keg...rapid force carbed it, yadda yadda yadda. I had intended on either 1) rinsing and reusing the yeast from the fermenter in my following batch (which I had hoped to have brewed the same day as the keg transfer) or 2) dumped the newly intended wort directly on top of the yeast cake (same day). With my inability to brew this week, I am now disappointed that I am 'wasting' perfectly good yeast.
My question is this...I left over some liquid atop the cake and resealed the fermenter. I then placed the fermenter back into the fridge (@ about 37 degrees). In a week when I get back, is that still going to viable for rinsing or pitching with a new wort? Looking for feedback to see if it is worth using it.
