Have you thought about harvesting off of your starter starter so you do not have to wash? I harvest off of the starter for strains that seem to lose their characteristics and I feel like they stay truer to their original form that way.
But I congratulate you on your washing. clap clap I’m too lazy to wash and just pour the trub in a mason jar and count it done.

Brewers Friend has some good info:

If you read down, they’re saying 1-5 billion cells per ml _in slurry. _

Don’t forget to wash your yeast for 20 seconds :wink: Or something like that.
