WL Yeast Tube

Northern Brewer General
1

Morning-

Im using my 1st vial of WL yeast this brewday. Typically I have been a us-05 guy or wyeast. Are there any practical BREWING uses for the leftover tubes??? It seems too small to try and put some washed yeast back in there.

Thanks

Perfect for storing yeast, that I don’t wash.

I actually purchased some vials, that are not as tough, to use for passing yeast around the club. Have not seen some of them return. :shock:

I’ve saved up several of them and have been planning to use them to store yeast that was replicated from a fresh pitch into a starter (a great idea that I got from someone on this forum a couple months ago). I think they would be great for that.
