I'm planning on trying a spontaneous fermentation later this year, and if it works I would like to save some of the yeast. I have an idea of a way to crop a sample of yeast to save. The reason I devised this plan is that I've heard that if top cropping yeast that it isn't recommended to hold on to the yeast for a long time. I'm wondering if I run a blow off into some pre-boiled water if it might keep for a while should I attemp to reuse it at a later date. My thought is that If I put two holes in the top of a mason jar, that I can put the blowoff through one hole and an air lock on the other to keep the blowoff sanitary. See ghetto diagram:
Is this just stupid enough to work?
