FERMOALE GERMAN K
Top-fermenting yeast strain for traditional Kölsch and Altbier varieties as well as a range of beers for which a neutral and clear malt character is important, such as Cream Ales and California Common (a warm-fermented lager variety).
Gives a neutral profile that allows the expression of malt characters to give a dry clean finish. There is a very low level of diacetyl and subtle ester notes of pear, apple and citrus

Pitching-Rate
Pitch directly into the wort in the fermenter, at pitch rate of:

The pitch rate is dependent on the brewing process conditions and will affect the fermentation performance and the final taste profile of the beer.
High gravity, high adjunct or high acidity fermentations may require higher pitching rates and the addition of yeast nutrients.
