Perfect for pitching yeast!

This flask is so big it looks cartoony. It works well and didn't explode when I put it directly on an open flame on my stove and again when I put it directly in an ice bath for cooling. Recommended!

I use these as a second or third step when growing up yeast from plates or slants and also to rehydrate dry yeast. To do so I fill it halfway with wort or water (for growing or rehydrating yeast respectively) add a stir bar cover it with foil and then cook it in my pressure cooker. That way I have sterile wort or water when I need it for yeast handling. I also sometimes use these on the stove and haven't had a problem yet. The glass is pretty thick and durable although I don't recommend putting it directly in cold water from the stove. It came well packaged in bubble wrap so it should arrive safely.

This is a handy size and quality flask for a variety of yeast handling tasks.

just don't put it on the stove don't think it is rated for that. i use it for stepping up starters and it is great.

This is a nice item when your doing starters. I use it to step up my starters. It's sturdy. I also like to use it during slanting to hold sanitizer which I put my inoculating loop in. Multitude of uses.
