New Brewer here. I am looking to wash my yeast to save some money....I have read and watched some video's on how to do it, how long it is good for etc. My question is this and its probably stupid but.....All the video's show the individual seperating the yeast from the gunk and beer, usually gunk on bottom, yeast in middle, then beer. They then pour this off and either store it then or do another round of washing and pour off the yeast into a steril container. My question is, would it not be better to use a siphon of some sort to get the yeast out and into a container rather than pour it off, or is that bad.......asking since I have not seen anyone do this, they always pour it off.
