I wasnt sure where to post this but i've just started washing some yeast after kegging. Does anyone have a batch of plastic test tubes they could send me?

What you need are plastic centrifuge tubes. These tend to have a screw on cap, a cone shaped bottom but also a flat bottom so it sits upright. They are supplied ( if lucky ) as sterile - ours were.

We had a group buy some time ago ( pre. NHC ) so some people may have some spares.

I have a couple of spare centrifuge tubes that are unopened so internally sterile. I can stick a few in an envelope for you if you'd like? Send me on your address in a PM. Or it could travel by NHC Express. Are you down south east?

Or if you're Dublin based, I'm around town until Friday afternoon!
