====MYPG Growth Substrate====
For breweries with laboratory capabilities, "Malt Yeast Peptone Glucose" growth substrate has been shown to be a better substrate than wort for growing an initial pitch of ''Brettanomyces''. Specifically, when When grown in wort, ''Brettanomyces'' will often go through a 24 hour lag phase, a growth phase, another lag phase, and a second growth phase (all within 7-8 days). When grown in MYPG substrate, there is only a single growth phase and no lag phase, which has been reported by Yakobson to produce a larger cell count in the same amount of time <ref>[http://www.brettanomycesproject.com/2009/08/mypg-vs-wort-as-the-growth-substrate/ Yakobson, Chad. The Brettanomyces Project. MYPG Compared to Wort as a Growth Substrate. Retrieved 2/18/2015.]</ref>. Cells grown in MYPG also are better adapted to grow in wort <ref>[http://www.brettanomycesproject.com/dissertation/propagation-and-batch-culture-growth/propagation-discussion/ Yakobson, Chad. The Brettanomyces Project. Propagation and Batch Culture Discussion. Paragraph 5. Retrieved 2/18/2015.]</ref>. Practical instructions for making this substrate can be found on Jason Rodriguez's blog, "[http://sciencebrewer.com/2011/04/29/wild-yeast-project-mypg-culture-media/ Brew Science - Homebrew Blog]".
