At Jasper Yeast we believe strongly in liquid yeast and have summarized the benefits of liquid over dry in this post. We are not arguing that dry yeast is bad. We think it is not always the best choice.  

Congrats! You have successfully harvested yeast into your brink.  Now we will outline the best practices for feeding and storing your yeast to ensure the highest possible viability.

We ship a small bottle of autoclaved media to feed yeast pitch for every order.  Below we'll detail how you can make your own yeast feeders with wort from your kettle.

First I brewed a bunch of ales for six years.  Then I focused on brewing lagers for the next six years.  The result?  My ales improved in quality.   Below is a general discussion on why prioritizing lagers will improve every beer on tap.

Liquid yeast is perfect to be reused. To JasperYeast customers, we offer a 5 gallon stainless steel brink for $150. This brink enables you to store and feed your yeast in an easy and sanitary way.
The brink comes with tri-clamp connectors, but for a small amount extra it is possible to add DIN adapters. In this leaflet we explain how to use the brink. 

This is a first in a series of articles that will help new brewers isolate and troubleshoot potential issues, resulting in a stalled fermentation.  These notes can provide a refresher course for more seasoned brewers as well.

If fermentation slows or never takes off, it's possible the yeast has prematurely dropped out of suspension and needs to be resuspended.  "I bubbled CO2 from the bottom of the tank" is a common note from brewers.  While this can work on occasion, bubbling CO2 does not effectively resuspend yeast compared to other techniques.  

You're brewing a lager, but your glycol chiller is underpowered and you can't cast out into the fermenter below 60F.   This is not ideal.  Here's why.

 With 2023 coming to a close, the team at Jasper Yeast is already looking ahead to 2024 and making some predictions based on current trends.
