I've been harvesting yeast from the bottom of previous brews for a while now and something I never thought about until a few days ago is, if a brew is cleared with gelatine will the yeast collected from it be less effective?
Also, I generally wash my yeast with water that has been pre-boiled and cooled to separate hop trub etc. Is this likely to remove gelatine?
Basically, am I wasting my time harvesting yeast that has been gelatined?
Does anyone else use gelatine AND harvest?
Any advice?
Cheers!
Jono.
