Free: Wyeast 3944 Belgian Witbier
  • I will be kegging a Christmas wit next week and will have some spare yeast cake for anyone who wants some. I will be able to provide about 200 ml in a small mason jar, either come by and pick it up or I can bring it to the meetup. It's supposed to be good for other Belgian styles, I plan on making a Leffe knockoff with the rest of the yeast.
  • I'll take this off your hands if no one has claimed it yet, I've been wanting to do a wit for a while.
  • It's yours, although it is only about 125ml, there wasn't as much as I expected to harvest.
  • Does anyone want some second generation yeast? I will probably rack my Leffe clone off this weekend and keep some for myself, but I'll have enough for a second mason jar. FYI, this yeast seems pretty slow going, so plan accordingly.
  • I'd take some 2nd gen off your hands, if only to compare with the Forbidden Fruit yeast I used for my last (and will use for my next) Wit. (And which I think I used in my BPA, though for the life of me I don't know what happened to the two bottles I brought on Saturday.)
  • I've got a 2nd gen sample of this that you're welcome to if you want Gord?
  • Whichever one is available sooner... I was going to double-batch a Wheat beer and make half into Berliner Weisse, the other half into a Wit. I was going to use Forbidden Fruit but if I can get the Wit yeast off someone, then I can do a side-by-side with the two... which would also make it possible to spice the Wits, and make the Berliner Weisse as a single batch (or double batch, the other half as a light Weizen or something) some other day.
  • Mine is in the fridge now (has been for a couple of weeks) but Bryan's is closer to you so whatever works.
  • Bill and Tiffany harvested it when they kegged the CDA a week ago, so I'm not sure where it is :)
  • Tiffany mentioned where on Facebook, no worries. :)
  • Gord is getting the one from magpie so does anyone want my 2nd gen sample?
