how long does barm last
i recently made a barm bread using a recipe by Dan Lepard and it was wonderful. I suggest everyone gives it a shot. However you need live yeast from beer. Some small craft beer companies have bottle conditioned beer which you can use and is what I used for my bread however this time round i thought id go straight to the source and managed to get some barm off a small local brewery. They call it TRUB. I cant wait to use it however i have no idea how long it will last. Ive put it in my fridge along with my sourdough. I presume i cant refresh it and also presume the yeast will eventually starve and die. Anyone any experience using barm/trub in bread? Any advice would be much appreciated.
