well frozen yeast survived.

Made a new starter and it took right off, but now I am wondering what all was killed or if anything at all was hurt. This is the flanders blend BTW. So should I go forward and brew with this stuff and chance it?

[Ó Flannagáin]

If the starter is going, use it :)

[Redweasel]

If the starter is going I'd imagine you would be fine.

[Ó Flannagáin]

That's pretty awesome it survived being frozen.. was it rock solid or just kind of icy?

[Ryanh1801]

yeah, that is my thought, just hope its not hurt at all and my year long beer will not be compromised.

Rock solid, it cracked the glass jug it was in. Stupid POS fridge.

[Ó Flannagáin]

holy cow... yea, that's awesome. I'd have thought it had no chance, but if the starters going, it's going. I'd use it without a second thought.

Just hope its not something else that got in their.

I'm with everyone else, use it.

If you want to be super sure though, you could always top crop into another batch of fresh wort and use that - leaving all the high floc'd, potentially dead yeast at the bottom.

good point..... how's it smell. Might even take a little taste too.

[Ryanh1801]

Smells good, I am going to let it go until sunday, and if it taste good Ill use it, if not Ill make my saison.

[PseudoChef]

[MrMarbleHead]

Cool..good to hear it worked.

[MrMarbleHead]

I was lazy and didn't read how it tasted? Did you taste the starter?

[Ó Flannagáin]

he hasn't taste yet, will before pitching though. Said it smelled good.
