"Happy Valentines Day! We are sharing the love the best way we know how! Our entire line of White Labs yeast is going to have a price drop over the next few days."

Sweet. I've been planning to try my hand at some Belgian styles, as it's a gap in my experience atm. :rock:
-
They are $5.99 each.

Chris did you use any of those vials that were frozen?
I think ill be ordering a few for sure.

I'd honestly wait until warmer weather to buy liquid yeast guys...with a 3-5 day shipping time, and the sub zero temperatures of February, you're pretty much garanteed to have frozen yeast when it arrives.
-
I did, I made a 1 litre starter and it seems to be fine. I called the White Lab and the gal that I spoke with seemed to think that the yeast would be okay as long as I made a starter to bring up the cell count. I am going to check the SG today to see where it is. If it isn't dropping much, I'll re-pitch more yeast.

Yeah I'm seeing conflicting information about the vials on the web. The OBK guy is right in saying their official line is that a short freeze won't do anything bad beyond 10%; however we're talking 3-5 days and they make no qualification as to what "short" means.
Regardless, if it gets a starter going within 24hours, you're likely good to rock and roll.
-
Yeah, the Lab Tech from White Labs that I spoke with said that I should be fine. Although, she didn't say whether I was supposed to step the starter or what size to make.
-
Aye they must be using gelatin or something equivalent in their vials - the same isn't true for any kind of raw slurry.
-
Well 5.99 from 6.25 was it? I assume 5.99 is temporary? Im going to hold off and spend the extra dollar and order in spring maybe.

Just as an FYI, those kettles are always on sale for $109. Still a great price for a great kettle.
