[COHO] Big brew update

[brett thomas]

As I was cleaning up the growlers that had yeast in them, I came across one 
that had almost an inch of yeast at the bottom.  I would guess that's our 
culprit.  Apparently whoever pitched that one didn't swirl vigorously to mix 
everything up.  Gary do you have any yeast that you can add to that 
fermenter?  I could probably get something over to you tomorrow...
