Wild Yeast Capture

There is some great information for wild yeast capture on Bootleg Biology’s devoted webpage.

Included on the webpage are…
Method #1: Wild Yeast Starter Jars
Method #2: Collecting Samples From Fruit & Vegetables
Method #3: Sterile Cotton Swabs

If you are unfamiliar with Bootleg Biology their Local yeast project is also very interesting…

Fascinating!

Intresting

When everyone says we need more women in (home)brewing. That is NOT what we mean.

Did you see, quite a while ago in Czechoslovakia, they had their “national hot model” to inoculate a brew…
I’ve not seen any more of that kinda stuff since… I will have to think… not exactly like they dreamt…
