  • re-use poor performer yeast?

    i underpitched and ended with a higher than normal T.G. is this yeast worth collecting or will it underattenuate again?

    It's probably stressed; attenuation and flavor profile may change depending on how hardy a strain it is. If you have other healthier fermentations you could pitch from, I would dump it.

      This yeast would not be your first choice to reuse. That said, It may work OK if given normal nutrtion and a healthy oxygen dose upon repitching. Then again, it might still cop an attitute.
