I'd be interested in taking the last four but can take two if someone else wants some. Can probably meet you on Sat too.

Hi Jacob, very sorry but after getting called into work for a few hours so won't be able to make it over today.  If no one else takes them I'll take all five packs for you next week if that suits?

Probably a stupid question, but here goes!

What do you use these vials for? I've never harvested yeast but I want to start and have access to a large supply of these tubes! From reading about harvesting, I'm probably going to go with this method:

http://www.homebrewtalk.com/yeast-harvesting-novel-approach.html

However, any walk-throughs I've come across store the  yeast in mason jars. So, at the end of the harvesting process, do you just transfer the yeast slurry to these small vials? Is there a minimum amount of water you should keep the yeast under?

Hurleyci I slant in these. Its a bit of work but a great way to store multiple strains easily. I also saw an article on hbt some time ago about freezing pitchable quantities in these. I saved the link but can't find it right now. I'd recommend slanting as it keeps the yeast in perfect condition if done right
