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.

Aroma and flavor characteristics:

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.

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 18- 25°C / 64-77°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.
