| May 21, 2011 at 1:08 | comment | added | Dustin Rasener | Graham, I like the idea of reusing a "yeast" cake from a sour. It's something like having a sourdough starter. Very cool. It may deserve its own question. | |
| May 19, 2011 at 17:04 | comment | added | GHP | Denny, does that still hold true for a bug-blend slurry? I think I read somewhere that you don't do starters for sacc/brett/pedio blends because the funky bugs don't like the extra oxygen from the starter. I might be remembering that wrong though. | |

| May 18, 2011 at 18:30 | comment | added | GHP | I'm storing a quart or so of trub from a sour beer in my fridge now. This is good to know because I won't be sure if the beer it makes is any good for a few more months. I'll leave the trub alone in the fridge and if the sour beer is good, I'll start the next one with the old trub. | |
| May 18, 2011 at 15:34 | comment | added | Denny Conn | You should always store trub/slurry in the fridge. I use a sanitized 1/2 gal. plastic tub with a snap on lid. | |
| May 18, 2011 at 2:03 | comment | added | Jeff Roe | How did you store the trub for 5 months? Refrigerated? Room temp? | |
| May 17, 2011 at 22:08 | comment | added | Mattress | I would imagine that if you dumped the trub from a belgian dark into a blond that could affect your color profile. Or if you dump IPA trub into a low hopped cream ale or something it could affect bitterness. So in those cases washing would help minimize these factors. | |
