  • Grain Millers Flaked White Wheat Grain Millers Flaked White Wheat

    Grain Millers Flaked White Wheat

    91 in stock

    Flaked White Wheat offers the benefits of unmalted wheat in a convenient flaked form. Unmalted wheat has a strong grain flavor, and a very light straw color. It is used in many traditional Belgian styles to add flavor and cloudiness, and improve head formation. Unlike raw, whole grains, the starch in flaked wheat is pre-gelatinized, so a separate cereal mash is usually unnecessary. However, the protein content is high. Depending upon use, a protein rest may be required. Use in the production of Belgian Wit beers. Use up to 40% as a cereal adjunct in the total grist. Use 0.5-1.0% to a standard brew to increase foam stability. 50 pound bags also available.

    4 in stock

    Wyeast Brewer's Choice Yeast Nutrient is a custom blend of vitamins, minerals, and micronutrients required for yeast cells to carry out an orderly and complete fermentation from start to finish. A wort that is nutrient-deficient, or which has adequate nutrients but limited bioavailability to the cells, can experience inhibited yeast growth, disrupted or incomplete fermentations, inconsistent attenuation rates from batch to batch, and diminished cell viability. Supplemental nutrients are always beneficial, but especially valuable during yeast propagation and stressful fermentation conditions (e.g, high-adjunct worts, high-gravity fermentations). Contains: Proprietary blend of vitamins, minerals, inorganic nitrogen, organic nitrogen, zinc, phosphates and other trace elements. Dosage rate: 11 grams/ barrel of wort Usage: Dissolve in warm water. Add solution to kettle 10-15 minutes prior to end of boil. Stability: 1 year, stored in airtight container in cool environment

  • Red Star Premier Rouge Wine Yeast Pasteur Red

    Premier Rouge Wine Yeast - Red Star

    69 in stock

    Good fermenter that produces full bodied reds. Encourages varietal fruity flavors balanced by complex aromas especially with Cabernets. Also gives character to less robust grapes or lighter reds. A good choice for wines aged in barrels. One of the best choices for quality red wines. Fermentative Properties This strain is a strong fermenter with medium regular kinetics. Killer factor neutral but good settlement in recommended parameters. Good alcohol tolerance (up to 15% vol.). Recommended for fermentation between 17°C and 30°C (64°F to 86°F). Controlled temperature preferred. High nitrogen requirement Organoleptic Properties This yeast encourages the development of varietal fruit flavors, balanced by complex and intense aromas (ripe red and black fruit), especially when using grapes from the Cabernet family. Ideal for structured red wines with very good polyphenol extraction. Provides an improved mouthfeel perception and smooth tannins. Suggestions of Applications Ideal strain for full-bodied reds: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Zinfandel. Premier Rouge gives character to less robust red grapes, or those picked before optimum development. Dosage 0.76 to 1.14 grams per gallon 20 to 30 g/hl (Average: 2,2 lbs. per 1,000 gal.) Recommendations of usage Pour the desired quantity of yeast in 10 times its weight of tap water at 30-35°C in a wide vessel. Cover all the water surface area by creating a thin layer of yeast. Let it rest for 20 minutes. Gently stir to complete the yeast rehydration and avoid the formation of clumps. Slowly double the volume of the yeast suspension by adding must from the tank while stirring in order to decrease the temperature of the yeast starter and to start the activation of the yeast. The difference of temperature between the rehydrated yeast and the tank should not exceed 10°C, optimum being 5°C. Let it rest for another 10 minutes. Homogenize and incorporate the yeast starter to the must. Storage The shelf life of unopened vacuum packets at room temperature (20°C, 68°F) is up to 4 years. After opening, use within 4 weeks. Store an opened package tightly sealed, under refrigeration, removing as much air as possible. Red Star® products comply with the Oenological Codex, until the Best Before End Date, in the storage conditions mentioned here above. Formerly known as Pasteur Red

  • LalBrew® Voss Yeast

    LalBrew® Voss Yeast

    16 in stock

    Kveik is a Norwegian word meaning yeast. In the Norwegian farmhouse tradition, kveik was preserved by drying and passed from generation to generation. Kveik is the original, traditional dried yeast! The LalBrew® Voss strain was obtained from Sigmund Gjernes (Voss, Norway), who has maintained this culture using traditional methods since the 1980’s and generously shared it with the wider brewing community. LalBrew® Voss supports a wide range of fermentation temperatures between 25-40°C (77-104°F) with a very high optimal range of 35-40°C (95-104°F). Very fast fermentations are achieved within the optimal temperature range with full attenuation typically achieved within 2-3 days. The flavor profile is consistent across the entire temperature range: neutral with subtle fruity notes of orange and citrus. Flocculation is very high producing clear beers without filtration or use of process aids.   QUICK FACTS Beer Styles:  Norwegian farmhouse ales, fast fermented neutral ales Aroma:  Relatively neutral, at high temperatures slight orange and citrus notes Attenuation:  Medium to High Fermentation Range: 25 - 40°C (77 - 104°F); Optimal: 35 - 40°C (95 - 104°F) Flocculation:  Very High Alcohol Tolerance:  12% ABV Pitching Rate:  50-100g/hl to achieve a minimum of 2.5-5 million viable cells/ml BREWING PROPERTIESIn Lallemand’s Standard Conditions Wort at 20°C (68°F) LalBrew® Voss yeast exhibits: Fermentation that is completed in: 2 days at 40°C (104°F) 3-4 days at 30°C (86°F) 5-7 days at 25°C (77°F) Medium to high attenuation and very high flocculation. Neutral flavor profile across the temperature range with notes of orange and citrus./li> The optimal temperature range for LalBrew® Voss yeast when producing traditional styles is 35-40°C (95-104°F) Lag phase, total fermentation time, attenuation and flavor are dependent on pitch rate, yeast handling, fermentation temperature and nutritional quality of the wort. Our research suggests that pitching LalBrew® Voss directly into wort without prior rehydration will often result in better performance including shorter lag-phase and greater attenuation USAGE The pitch rate will affect the fermentation performance and flavor of the beer. For LalBrew® Voss yeast, a pitch rate of 50-100g per hL of wort is sufficient to achieve a minimum of 2.5-5 million viable cells/mL. More stressful fermentations such as high gravity, high adjunct or high acidity may require higher pitch rates and additional nutrients to ensure a healthy fermentation. REHYDRATION Rehydration of dry brewing yeast in sterile water is generally recommended prior to pitching into wort in order to reduce stress on the cell as it transitions from dry to liquid form. However, our research suggests that pitching LalBrew® Voss directly into wort without prior rehydration will often result in better performance including shorter lag-phase and greater attenuation. Use of a rehydration nutrient such as Go-Ferm Protect Evolution has been shown to improve fermentation performance for difficult fermentations. Rehydration guidelines are quite simple and present a much lower risk of contamination than a starter, which is unnecessary when using the recommended pitch rate of dried active yeast. Sprinkle the yeast on the surface of 10 times its weight in clean, sterilized water at 30-35°C (86-95F). Do not use wort, or distilled or reverse osmosis water, as loss in viability may result. Stir gently, leave undisturbed for 15 minutes, then stir to suspend yeast completely. Leave it to rest for 5 more minutes at 30-35°C. Without delay, adjust the temperature to that of the wort by mixing aliquots of wort with the rehydrated yeast. Wort should be added in 5 minute intervals and taking care not to lower the temperature by more than 10°C at a time. Temperature shock of >10°C will cause formation of petite mutants leading to extended or incomplete fermentation and possible formation of undesirable flavors. Do not allow attemperation to be carried out by natural heat loss. This will take too long and could result in loss of viability or vitality Inoculate without delay into cooled wort in the fermenter. LalBrew® Voss yeast has been conditioned to survive rehydration. The yeast contains an adequate reserve of carbohydrates and unsaturated fatty acids to achieve active growth. It is unnecessary to aerate wort upon first use. STORAGE LalBrew® Voss yeast should be stored in a vacuum sealed package in dry conditions below 4C° (39°F). LalBrew® Voss will rapidly lose activity after exposure to air. Do not use 500g or 11g packs that have lost vacuum. Opened packs must be re-sealed, stored in dry conditions below 4°C (39°F), and used within 3 days. If the opened package is re-sealed under vacuum immediately after opening, yeast can be stored below 4C° (39°F) until the indicated expiry date. Do not use yeast after expiry date printed on the pack. 11g Pack
