SafAle™ WB-06 is a world-class yeast strain specifically selected for brewing authentic wheat-based beers. This 500g bulk brick is the ideal solution for commercial breweries. WB-06 is known for producing the characteristic esters and phenols associated with German Hefeweizens and Belgian Wits, providing notes of banana, clove, and subtle citrus. It is a highly attenuative strain that remains in suspension to provide the iconic "cloudy" appearance of traditional wheat styles while ensuring a crisp and refreshing finish.
Brewery Tip: To maximize the clove (phenolic) character, start fermentation at 64°F. To highlight more banana (ester) notes, aim for 72-75°F. Rehydrating in 10x its weight of sterile water at 80°F for 15 minutes ensures the highest viable cell count for a vigorous start. This strain flocculates poorly, which is required to maintain the "haze" in authentic wheat ales.
