Coopers Best Extra Stout - yeast culture?? How?

Recommended Posts

I read on this here Coopers site that to make the Best Extra Stout you need to grow the Coopers commercial yeast culture... I have read up lots on reculturing Coopers yeast for stuff like Pale Ale (one of my next intended brews) which is fairly straightforward as you can see the mass of sediment in the bottles that you can use to reculture, but how would you possibly do this with Best Extra? You can't see anything!

 

Is what they're talking about on the Best Extra Stout recipe on this site something totally different to reculturing Pale Ale yeast?

Whats with all the double up of topics lately? Bugs me thinks.

 

LukeM1 - I answered in the other thread. But here the gisgt of it: The yeast is the same in Pale Ale and Stout (and Sparklin Ale etc.). Use the yeast from bottles of Pale Ale to make a culture from though as it is fresher and hasn't been beaten about by a higher alcohol content.
