Lalvin EC-1118: The World’s Most Reliable High-Alcohol Yeast
Known as the original "Prise de Mousse," Lalvin EC-1118 is a professional-grade strain favored for its extreme robustness and neutral flavor profile. This 10-pack bundle ensures you always have the industry’s most versatile yeast on hand for wine, cider, mead, and sparkling beverages.
Why Professional Brewers Choose EC-1118
With a massive alcohol tolerance of 18% ABV, EC-1118 is the go-to solution for high-gravity brews and "stuck" fermentations. It ferments quickly and reliably in a wide temperature range, making it the most "forgiving" yeast on the market for both beginners and experts.
Key Product Features:
- High Alcohol Tolerance: Cleanly ferments up to 18% ABV without stressing.
- Neutral Sensory Profile: Preserves the natural varietal characters of the fruit or honey without adding unwanted "yeasty" flavors.
- Stuck Fermentation Specialist: The robust nature of this strain makes it perfect for restarting stalled fermentations.
- Wide Temperature Range: Performs consistently between 50°F and 86°F (10°C - 30°C).
- Excellent Flocculation: Settles quickly to leave you with a bright, clear finished product.
