FERMO BREW CITRUS
FERMO Brew Citrus is an aromatic yeast strain obtained by hybridization. Thanks to its medium nutrient requirement, this yeast strain produces a pleasant full-bodied profile even in the early phase of fermentation compared to normal brewing yeast, enabling brewers to produce alcohol-free or low-alcohol beers with elegant aromatic berry notes using the fermentation interruption method (<0.5 % vol.).

Remarks
Use
It is generally recommended that active dry yeast is pitched directly into the wort without prior rehydration.
If direct pitching is not feasible the yeast can be hydrated and pitched in liquid form.
To rehydrate dissolve the dry yeast in sterile water or in wort at 11-16°C / 52-61°F at a ratio of 1:10. Stir gently and leave for approximately 20 minutes. Gently stir again and add to the cooled wort in the fermenter.
To avoid yeast stress, ensure temperature fluctuations are minimal.
