Simply brew on the days when you rack from the primary to the bottles/keg and put the new wort from the brew pot through a reverse chiller directly onto the yeast from the last batch in the primary.
The primary is already sterile so this will produce a healthy kraeusen in a matter of hours!
Again, 6X reuse and then start a new batch of yeast ;)
@car97: There is a secondary valve about 6" above the drain valve that is used for bottling. You'd have better results with carbonation if you drained into a bottling bucket first; but only because you may have small amounts of fetmentation byproduct laying in the bottom. I drain my beer right into a keg and force carbonate with co2.
Thanks for the video. I was thinking about purchasing a minibrew now, can a person bottle right from the conical? and if so, is it safe to add the priming sugar right from the top of the conical?
You can reuse the yeast up to 6X.
