This dry lager yeast—a favorite among Western European commercial breweries. This bottom-fermenting yeast shines when fermented at low temperatures (48°F to 59°F), yet it retains lager characteristics even at higher temps. For optimal results, maintain a temperature range of 48°F to 59°F during fermentation.

Pitching Instructions:

  • Direct Pitching: Add the yeast directly.
  • Rehydration (optional):
    • Sprinkle yeast in 10 times its weight of sterile water or wort (about 4 oz).
    • Let it rest for 15 to 30 minutes.
    • Gently stir for 30 minutes.
    • Pitch the resulting cream into the fermentation vessel.
