cousin-merle: "Flocculation is a desirable and important characteristic that is unique to brewers yeast. When brewers yeast nears the end of fermentation, single cells aggregate into clumps of thousands of cells, and drop to the bottom of the fermentor, leaving clear beer behind. If yeast flocculate too early, the beer will be underattenuated and sweet. If yeast do not flocculate, the beer will be cloudy and have a yeasty taste."

/aggregate and fall, you!
//makes about as much sense as fark you does when you think about it
///three just to have enough to floccuate

These days, I mostly use it to describe snow -- the big huge flakes that will stick to things, as opposed to the 'powder' stuff that skiers love but is absolutely crap for making snowballs.
