Fermentis Yeast

This typical brewer’s yeast strain is recommended for well-attenuated beers, produces fruity, floral and phenolic notes and a dry character. Produces highly refreshing beers, it is ideal for Belgian-Saison style.

Active dry brewer’s yeast recommended to ferment a diversity of Belgian type beers such as abbey style known for its fruitiness and high alcohol content. It ferments very fast and reveals strong fermentation aromas. To maintain the aromatic profile at the end of the fermentation, we do recommend to crop this yeast as soon as possible after fermentation.

SafAle™ BE-256 provides fruity flavors over different fermentation conditions, specially at higher densities and high fermentation temperatures.

This yeast is ideal to brew strong and flavor rich Belgian ales.

German ale brewer’s yeast producing subtle fermentation character. Depending on the conditions tend to present floral and balanced fruity character. Ideal for delicate beers such as German Kolsch beers, Belgian Wits and some versions of Session Beers. Suitable for heavily hopped beers and has ability to form a large firm head when fermenting.

Fruity driven strain, gives a high mouthfeel and body to the beer. Ideal for Belgian Ales (Blond, Dubbel, Tripel, Quadrupel Styles) and strong English ales (ex. Imperial Stouts). It is also ideal for New England IPAs. Yeast with a medium sedimentation: forms no clumps but a powdery haze when resuspended in the beer.

Specialty brewer’s yeast selected for its strong fermentation character, intense fruity and phenolic flavours – especially banana, clove and peppery notes. Suitable for a great variety of wheat-base beers and fruity-spicy oriented styles. Yeast with a medium sedimentation: forms no clumps but a powdery haze when resuspended in the beer.

American ale brewer’s yeast producing neutral and well-balanced ales, clean and crispy. Forms a firm foam head and presents a very good ability to stay in suspension during fermentation. Ideal for American beer types and highly hopped beers.

A specialty yeast selected for the production of aromatic beers with typical phenolic character (clove and peppery notes) and rich in fruity and floral flavours. Suitable for a great variety of wheat-base beers and fruity-spicy oriented styles. Yeast with a medium sedimentation: forms no clumps but a powdery haze when re suspended in the beer.

Produces a beautifully aromatic and complex flavour profile, defined by a prominent ester character of ripe banana and tutti-frutti notes, balanced by phenolic spice of clove and pepper. These signature flavours are complemented by subtle floral and bubblegum hints, creating the quintessential taste expected in styles like Hefeweizen, Dunkelweizen, and Weizenbock. The result is a richly flavoured, yet well-balanced beer with a silky texture and a creamy mouthfeel.

Brewer’s yeast providing fruity and phenolic character, varying with the fermentation conditions. Produces well-attenuated beers and it is ideal for wheat base beers, such as Belgian and German Styles (Ex. Wit Beers and Weizen Beers).

Produces typical phenolic notes of wheat beers. Allows to brew beer with a high drinkability profile and presents a very good ability to suspend during fermentation.

English ale brewer’s yeast selected for its fast fermentation profile. Produces balanced fruity and floral notes. Due to its flocculation power, tends to produce beers with higher clarity. Ideal for a large range of American and English Ales – including highly hopped beers – and is specially adapted to cask-conditioned and beers fermented in cylindro-conical tanks.

Bottom fermenting brewer’s yeast originating from Berlin in Germany. SafLager S-23 recommended for the production of fruitier and more estery lagers. Its profile gives beers with a good length on the palate.

SafLager™ SH-45 is a carefully selected lager yeast, ideal for expressing some of the aromatic compounds coming from the raw materials in beer, more specifically the hops. This strain possesses the capability to release and esterify thiols. As a result, beers crafted with SafLager^TM SH-45 may present enhanced levels of fruitiness and intensified citrus and tropical notes.

This famous brewer’s yeast strain from Weihenstephan in Germany is used world-wide within the brewing industry. SafLager™ W-34/70 allows the brewing of beers with a good balance of floral and fruity aromas and gives clean flavors and high drinkable beers.

Bottom fermenting yeast originating from Berlin (Germany) recommended for the production of fruity and estery lagers. Its lower attenuation profile gives beers with a good length on the palate.

FERMENTATION: ideally 12-15℃

REHYDRATION INSTRUCTIONS:

Sprinkle the yeast in minimum 10 times its weight of sterile water or wort at 21 to 25 °C (70°F to 77°F). Leave to rest 15 to 30 minutes. Gently stir for 30 minutes, and pitch the resultant cream into the fermentation vessel.

Alternatively, pitch the yeast directly in the fermentation vessel providing the temperature of the wort is above 20°C (68°F). Progressively sprinkle the dry yeast into the wort ensuring the yeast covers all the surface of wort available in order to avoid clumps. Leave for 30 minutes, then mix the wort using aeration or by wort addition.
