Does anyone know where to pick up test tubes for storing rinsed yeast? Says on the brew wiki to ask on the forum

They are normally purchased in bulk as part of a group buy that happens a couple of times a year.

Ahh right, cheers. I'll have to keep an eye out for a group buy - the fridge isn't really big enough for a load of kilner jars

Barring another group buy, is there anywhere that stocks these guys?

Looking to get about 10, that should keep me sorted for the year (especially keen not to put my saison yeast down the drain)

Where are you based? Can sort you out with a few (wouldn'tsay no to some of ythat saison yeast if it's available  ;))

based in Dublin, have two saisons finishing off and will likely keg them in the next couple of weeks (WLP 565 & 566) so keen to get a few things sorted before then.

Just going to wash them as i don't have the equipment to slant.

At worst I'll likely brew up another saison & dump on top of the yeast cake. I do like a saison... ;)
