I started my dregs collection last night, with the first being from rds' sour saison. For now I am keeping them in a jar in the fridge until I can make a wort to put them in and leave in a closet.
How long can i store dregs without using them? I have some sours i want to pop open, but i want to keep the dregs, so i'm holding off on opening them. I was planning on just putting them in either some old white labs yeast vials or some sanitized mason jars.
Also, do you combine your dregs into one container, or separate them out?

I am sure they die off eventually, but I am not concerned. I am keeping them separate.

I've read that you should use them as soon as you can and try to use them from fresh bottles, but I don't have anything planned, for now. I intend to make a "mini-sour", less than a gallon, like I mentioned earlier, to keep them happy for a longer period of time. But I think that if you can use dregs from bottles that are a year old, why couldn't you keep dregs for a year?
I probably should keep them seperate, or at least keep rds' seperate from Jester King and seperate from Cantillon, but I'm too lazy for all that. I'm just going to pitch them all together and see what happens. The worst thing that can happen is I end up throwing away dregs I probably would have thrown out anyways.
