Cleaning
Before the rst use and after each use, disassemble the Yeast Harvester and wash it with Powdered Brewery Wash
(PBW) or a similar product. Sanitize with Star San or a similar product. Do not exceed 100°F and use only for the time
recommended by the chemical manufacturer.
Recommended Usage
The Yeast Harvester can be installed at the beginning of fermentation with the bottom dump valve left open. This will
allow trub, protein, and early occulating yeast to collect. You may discard this collection after 5-6 days of
fermentation. The best yeast to collect is over the next 3-4 days after the rst dump. Store the collected yeast in the
the bottle with an airlock and a #7 stopper until fermentation is complete. The cap may be used on the bottle to store
yeast that has completed fermentation.
Fermentor Conguration and Requirements
A 1.5”triclamp valve is required to connect the Yeast Harvester to a fermentor. For best results, congure the valve in
the vertical possition. The Yeast Harvester requires a minimum of 7.5” (191mm) of space below the fermentor’s
bottom dump valve to operate. Fermentor leg extensions are required to elevate the Fermenator™ G4 and ANVIL
Crucible™ for use with the Yeast Harvester.

Install the tube into the bottom of the yeast harvester body.
This will direct the CO2 to the bottom of the bottle, ensuring
that the oxygen is completely purged from the bottle.
Ensure the o-ring is seated on the ball
lock post shown in gure 2.
Install the Yeast Harvester as shown
in gure 3 with a 1.5”tri-clamp and
gasket.
Tighten the collection bottle to the
harvester body and remove the gas
ball lock.
Slowly open the valve to allow the
yeast into the bottle. After the yeast
has been harvested, close the valve
and slowly unscrew the bottle to
gently relieve pressure.
Slowly loosen the collection bottle to
allow CO2 to release out of the top.
Attach the gas ball lock and introduce
CO2 into the collection bottle.
Five seconds of purging at 10psi is
sucient.
