I am as cheap as they come and always looking to save.
With liquid yeast costing 7-9 dollars, I realized that this is about the same price as a 4-6 pack of quality beer. So far I have only harvested yeast from my own homebrew and pinched droplets of yeast from friends when hanging around them when they brew, with great success. Now I am starting to make a list of commercial beers to harvest from and save a buck or two and not be limited to only what I or my friends are brewing at that time.
This not new to some but for me I feel like I just won something.
