Hey all,
Just in the process of my first US05 yeast harvest/wash from the trub in the bottom of the fermenter.
Following the guide from here with pics and have got my yeast + distilled water solution into two jars.
Problem is, I cannot make out the layers. There is definately the clear layer on top, but i cant make out the difference from the yeast
to the trub layer. Its been about 30 mins.. should i just wait longer??
Only thing out of the ordinary with this brew is that it was a 10L brew to test a style to see if i liked it.
I also put a 1/2 packet of yeast in it... Didnt do much for 3 or so days so i added another half. So lots of yeast in there.
Could that contribute to my inability to see the trub layer... Just soo much yeast?
Thanks in advance!
