Key Features:
- Versatile Fermentation: Perfect for both ale and lager styles, providing reliable and consistent results.
- High Viability: Each gram contains over 1 billion live yeast cells, ensuring vigorous fermentation.
- Rapid Completion:
- Ales: Completes fermentation in just 7 days at 20°C.
- Lagers: Completes fermentation in 9 days at 12°C.
- Clean Aroma Profile: Produces a neutral, low ester aroma, allowing the natural beer flavours to shine.
- High Attenuation and Flocculation: Ensures a thorough fermentation and clear beer with minimal effort.
- Alcohol Tolerance: Up to 10% ABV, suitable for a wide range of beer styles.
Usage Instructions:
- Pitching Rate: Adjust based on beer style, wort gravity, and fermentation temperature. Recommended rate is 50 to 100 grams per 100 litres of wort.
- Direct Pitching: Simply sprinkle the dry yeast on the wort surface as the fermenter is being filled. This method is straightforward and ensures consistent performance.
- Rehydration: If rehydration is necessary, follow the precise guidelines to maintain yeast health and fermentation efficiency.
