As brewers look to cut costs and improve consistency, yeast repitching is one of the highest-ROI process upgrades you can make.

In this beginner-focused episode of The Escarpment Labs Podcast, Mark and Richard break down why repitching works — and more importantly, how to start repitching without a lab, microscope, or complicated equipment.

We cover the non-negotiable fundamentals:

• How to choose a healthy “source batch” (freshness matters more than you think)

• The simplest harvest setup (a sanitized hose + a humble bucket)

• The single most important step to prevent off-flavours and repitch disasters

If you’ve been repitch-curious but unsure where to start, this episode is your green light.
