FERMOALE WEISS
Active dry yeast for the production of German-style wheat beer – from Hefeweizen to Kristallbock, Dunkelbock and Weizenbock – with a typical phenolic-estery character, also suitable for other wheat beers.
FERMOALE Weiss expresses a perfect harmony of medium-high levels of banana esters and clove, pepper and nutmeg phenols. More banana esters are produced at a high fermentation temperature, low pitching rate, low aeration and high wort density – more phenols, on the other hand, under the opposite conditions.

Use
Pitching-Rate
Pitch directly into the wort in the fermenter, at a pitch rate of 50 – 80g/hl of cool wort at 18 – 22°C / 64 – 72°F.
The pitch rate will affect the fermentation performance and the final flavour of the beer.
High gravity, high adjunct or high acidity fermentations may require higher pitching rates plus the addition of yeast nutrients.
