Quick Overview


Formerly known as SafCider™, SafCider™ AB-1 the best cider yeast for balanced ciders, combining delicate fresh apple and apple sauce notes.

Product Description

Ferment ciders, applejack, or apple brandy washes with Safcider from Fermentis. This yeast is selected from strains of the Champagne region of France. Safcider performs well under harsh conditions with a high alcohol tolerance. It can ferment in a temperature range of 50-86°F, but has an ideal temperature range of 64-75°F.

Works at low pH from 3.3
Low nitrogen requirements: from 150ppm of Yeast Available Nitrogen
Maximum SO2 level : 70mg/L

This yeast can be pitched directly, but if you prefer to rehydrate, the instructions are below.

Sprinkle the yeast in a minimum of 10 times its weight of sterile water or wort (we suggest 4 oz) at 70°F to 77°F (21 to 25 °C). Do not stir. Leave to rest 15 to 30 minutes. Gently stir for 30 minutes, and pitch the resultant cream into the fermentation vessel.

Recommended temperature range: 64F-75F.
