Malter White Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Hey guys. Coopers 24 x 440ml cans are on special at Thirsty Camel for $50. That's a pretty good buy. Works out to roughly the equivalent of 28 x 375ml. I have a question for you though. Has anyone ever extracted the yeast from Coopers cans as opposed to extracting from the bottles? I've done it from the bottles with great results. I'm hoping I can get similar results with cans. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malter White Posted January 11, 2022 Author Share Posted January 11, 2022 @Hilltop hops If my memory serves correctly you're in the north east of Adelaide. I saw the sign for this special at The Settlers hotel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excellent special Muzzy, I saw them at the Watermark which is 1.5kms away, so I will be getting some. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instigator Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 @MUZZYYeah mate. I sometimes grab the yeast from the Mild Ale cans. Same idea as the bottle - just pour out a glass and leave the sediment behind. Collect a few and brew. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loafing_about Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 I've also harvested yeast from cans - including some 440ml cans when they had the sale once before! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be a lot harder to see what leaving behind than stubby? or just sacrifice a bit more to be safe? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right but there'd also probably be slightly more yeast in the bigger 440ml vessel. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
