>Yeast Propagation Equipment for the Small Batch Brewer

I’ll admit it. This is an area that I don’t have a lot of knowledge in yet. I’m just super stoked that my order from Cynmar arrived! Soon I’ll be plating, slanting, and culturing myself a sweet yeast library. As I don’t yet have any practical experience, I can only point you to the two main sources of my research:

1. Eric Lowe’s awesome yeast slanting write-up on HomeBrewTalk.com: A great practical step-by-step tutorial on slanting yeast for long-term storage, with lots of references.

2. Yeast – The Practical Guide to Beer Fermentation by Jamil Zainasheff and Chris White: More in-depth and advanced than Eric’s write-up, with extra info on other ways you can use lab analysis to improve your beer.

Cheers,

Matt
