Poor Yeast Flocculation from Propagated Yeast

  • 1.  Poor Yeast Flocculation from Propagated Yeast

    Posted 06-11-2024 13:13

    I have a small system, generally only pitching 2 to 4 bbls at a  time.  I have just started to propagate yeast from HomeBrew packs using a carboy, DME, stir plate, force aeration, etc.  While I get good cell growth and the yeast seems healthy i.e. no sensory issues, we are struggling with poor fluctuation during crashing from my propped yeast vrs. when I get a full pitch from my favorite yeast lab.  Thoughts?
