FERMENTATION

Yeast and nutrient ingredients and blends used in the production of alcoholic beverages.

DISTILLER’S YEAST FOR GRAIN WHISKIES

A distiller’s yeast with excellent fermentation kinetics and high tolerances to glucose and ethanol, ideal for producing smooth and well-balanced whiskies from wheat, corn, and other grains. This strain is non-diastatic so the use of exogenous saccharification enzymes can be employed to improve yield through utilization of maltotriose and higher sugars.

Net Weight: 500g

Dosage and Application
The optimum pitch rate for this strain is between 0.5-1 g/L but higher rates may be required if using under difficult fermentation conditions and/or with very high gravity wort.

To rehydrate the yeast, rehydrate in 10 times its weight of clean boiled water at 25-30°C. Do exceed 30 minutes of rehydration as times above this can be detrimental to yeast viability. When pitching yeast into wort, the temperature difference between rehydration and wort should not be over 10°C.

This strain can ferment within the range 20-35°C but best results are achieved when a temperature between 25°C and 32°C is maintained.
