==Growing Without Isolation==
(To do)While using agar plates to isolate yeast colonies is the most effective way to culture wild yeast, it is not the only way. Wild yeast should be caught using starter wort as outlined in [http://bootlegbiology.com/diy/capturing-yeast/ Bootleg Biology's ''Method 1'' or ''Method 2'']. The starter wort's pH should be lowered to below 4.5 to avoid bacteria as much as possible. Molds may still grow in the yeast starter even with the lower pH. Signs of a small krausen within a day or two is a good sign that viable wild yeast has been collected. After another day or two, the yeast will start dropping to the bottom of the vessel <ref>[http://www.homebrewtalk.com/collecting-wild-yeast.html Collecting Wild Yeast. Manoaction. Homebrewtalk. Oct 30, 2012.]</ref>. Once the starter has fermented out, decant the beer and pitch the collected yeast into a larger volume of starter wort, again lowering the pH to below 4.5 of the wort.
