You don't have to get fancy "washing" yeast for reuse, just put the new batch on the old yeast cake or save some trub from the first batch in the fridge if you can't turn around that quickly. It helps to save a little money. One advantage of doing half-size batches and reusing the yeast to make a stronger brews is that I rarely have to make starters.

I've been homebrewing for a few years doing half-size batches, 2.5 - 3 gallons or roughly 12L, just enough for a case of bottles. Took last year off because of house repairs and the fact that I'd created a back log of strong beers that were "aging". Basically I make a lighter batch then reuse the yeast for a stronger one. I told myself I couldn't make any more until I worked my way through all of these quadruples and dopplebocks...

Nice work on that enclosure labeling.
I've never not been annoyed working with 1590a enclosures but I can't seem to stop using them.
