I did! haven't quite yet figured out what I should be doing with them all yet.  Would there be any interest in making a making a yeast bank in Galway we could swap and trade? I see they do a bit of yeast swapping around Dublin, but it's a bit far to drive for us.
Would it be worth the effort in getting the required equipment? (or between a few of us if that's feasible?)..... A yeast I was looking at recently was the Edinburgh Scottish Ale yeast. 7quid + postage from HBC... Don't mind getting some but if the science is there to keep a bit aside for future then may aswell try and use it. if there's a few of us doing it we could get a fairly decent stock up here.   and vials would obviously be a required bit of kit.

I've a tiny freezer but thats plenty o room for some yeast vials, id be well into organising a group bank anyways. I was lookin at that scottish ale yeast meself steve, if you have it i might hold off. Ive some washed conan there anyway, just waitin to collect the vials (nice one barry :)) to go micro.

Great cheers Barry. I won't be back in work until 2nd or 6th of Jan if you'll be back in town again around then?, or you can leave my keg / vials with anyone in town if anyone's around and can hold them for me?
