Harvesting Yeast

[trevorS]

I am thinking of freezing some yeast in glycerin and the you tube video suggests using yeast slurry, so my question is should I make a two liter starter as i do for each brew and freeze whatever volume of yeast it produces or would I get more yeast from harvesting from slurry any help would be appreciated.
