Title: Various out of date yeasts
Post by: DCLavs on October 07, 2014, 03:13:05 PM
Was doing a read out as I started brewing again after a year out and I've a load of yeast (at least 15 packets) here for the bin unless it's of any use to someone...think I read about people using these for starters or yeast food or something  :D

Can list what's there if it can be used by anyone...if not I'll just dump it.

I'll take a packet or two off you.  :)

As CARA says, bung them into the boil and then the fresh yeast can feast on it in the fermenter.

Some are Feb 2012 and others Feb 2013.

Hoping to do my first AG/BIAB this week...might use some for nutrient.

Yous can have the rest.
