Product Overview


Introducing our superior dry lager yeast, an essential addition to every brewer's toolkit. Whether you need a reliable backup or a dependable primary yeast for your lagers, our product ensures a remarkably clean and crisp lager taste.

This yeast is our top recommendation, celebrated for its exceptional performance in brewing. Utilized by Western European commercial breweries, it's renowned for manifesting the best flavors, especially when fermented at low temperatures (48-59°F). Even at higher temperatures, it maintains those sought-after "lager characteristics."

For those who prioritize quality, our yeast allows for direct pitching, but can also be rehydrated according to the simple instructions provided below. Experience the pleasure of brewing with a yeast that's designed to give you the perfect beer, every single time.

Rehydration Instructions:

  1. Sprinkle the yeast into 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).
  2. Leave to rest for 15 to 30 minutes without stirring.
  3. Gently stir for 30 minutes, and then pitch the resultant cream into the fermentation vessel.
