We don't get an East/West link but we get a public holiday this Friday for the AFL Grand Final, sorry interstate customers... We will be closed Friday. Anyway, if you post on our Facebook post ONLY, the winner of the AFL Grand Final - Winning Team and exact margin for 2015 [Pre Game, obviously], you will have a $20 credit applied to your account. Why not?

Hey Mate, They are 240v 3500w - So a 15amp GPO will be required. It comes with a L6-30P plug, so if your are not using it with a controller, you may require a qualified person to change it to your needs.

waiting for the yeast to go up for sale... please put up soon

001, 002 and 004 in the new 'Pure Pitch' packaging.

A lot of what i grabbed was dry yeasts, the liquids are in the fridge.

 

[technobabble66]

Um ... Dry yeasts go in the fridge too. They my be a bit on the dead side if you've frozen them.

On order..yipeee

Thanks Yeast Nerd. :lol:
I stand corrected
(though in my defense I s'pose I was quoting the technical data correctly - only they haven't corrected their tech data) B)

 

[mofox1]

Well ya learn something new every day... Dontcha.

 

[DJ_L3ThAL]

Hows it work for Safale who have a protective gas atmosphere inside with the yeast as opposed to Danstar who vacuum seal?

 

[takai]

Yeah, i have always frozen my dry yeasts. Never had an issue with it at all.

 

[Yob]

think about it..

dehydrated....

Its the water in the cell wall that crystallizes when freezing.. no water, no rupture..

Its what Glycerine does, displaces the water in the cell wall..

 

[technobabble66]

Yeah, I've always thought they should've been ok to freeze for the reason you said; but just went by what the producers said was ok. Just assumed there must still be water in the cells or something.
Obviously adds fuel to the idea that what they advise isn't always the full truth.

Rehydrate, anybody?!
