Definition of '''wild Wild yeast isolation''' (To do), sometimes known as ''yeast wrangling'', refers to the process of catching wild yeast, and isolating it with agar plates as a pure culture. This article will also contain information for growing up a captured mixed culture in wort rather than isolating pure cultures.
