Lalvin EC1118 has been selected in a famous sparkling wine region for its excellent properties in producing sparkling base wine as well as “in-bottle” secondary fermentation. It is very resistant to osmotic pressure. Lalvin EC1118 is known for its robust and reliable fermentation kinetics. Its sensory contribution is considered neutral as it gives very little sensory contribution to the wine. It is used extensively in the world for the production of both white and red wines. GRAPE VARIETY PAIRING:  Brings fresh floral aromas to neutral varieties or high-yield grapes. WINE STYLES:  Sparkling wine base and Prise de Mousse. Useful for a wide range of applications, including wine and fruit cider fermentations. AROMA:  Neutral ALCOHOL TOLERANCE:  Up to 18% FERMENTATION RANGE:  10-30°C (50-86°F) INOCULATION RATE:  0.2-0.4g/L Data Sheet

Lalvin QA23 was selected in Portugal by the University of Tras os Montes e Alto Douro (UTAD) in cooperation with Viticultural Commission of Vinhos Verdes region.Lalvin QA23TM has a very high β-glucosidase activity, an enzyme which helps to cleave non-volatile aromatic compounds into their volatile state. Hence this yeast contributes to varietal / terroir fruit expression. Its use for Sauvignon Blanc is therefore highly recommended. Known for its reliability and robustness, Lalvin QA23 tends to ferment well in clarified juice, low in nutrients. GRAPE VARIETY PAIRING:  Sauvignon Blanc, Chenin Blanc, Colombard, Gewürztraminer, Muscadelle, Pinot Gris, Riesling, Semillon, Viognier and Roussanne. WINE STYLES:  Varietal aromatic white wines. Useful for a wide range of applications, including mead and fruit cider fermentations. AROMA:  Fresh passion fruit / pineapple.

Lalvin 71B has been isolated and selected by INRA Narbonne (France), for its ability to produce a high level of esters (isoamyl ester), allowing it to reinforce the aromatic profile of wines fermented from neutral varieties. Lalvin 71B has the capacity to absorb polyphenolic compounds on its cellular wall which limits tannin structure of young and fresh red wine. Grape must inoculated with Lalvin 71B will easily go through malolactic fermentation, as 20-40% of malic acid can be metabolized by this yeast strain during primary fermentation. Lalvin 71B is the perfect choice to create young, fresh and fruity red, rosé and white wines that are easy to drink. It is also a good choice for late harvest wines. GRAPE VARIETY PAIRING:  Cabernet Franc, Gewürztraminer, Grenache, Pinot Gris, Riesling, Viognier, Zinfandel and Gamay. WINE STYLES:  Red, rosé and white young, fresh and fruity wine with smooth tannin structure as well as fruit ciders. AROMA:  Tropical fruit and banana flavor. ALCOHOL TOLERANCE:  Up to 14% FERMENTATION RANGE:  15-30 °C (59-86 °F) INOCULATION RATE:  0.2-0.4g/L Data Sheet

Lalvin D47 has been isolated in France in the Côtes-du-Rhône area by the ICV (Institut Coopératif du Vin) to produce full-bodied barrel-fermented Chardonnay and other white varietal grapes. Due to the release of polysaccharides into the must during fermentation, this yeast contributes to a round, soft palate with good weight.This process can also help to stabilize aromatic compounds. Lalvin D47 is highly recommended to produce premium, barrel fermented Chardonnay. When left on lees, spicy, tropical and citrus notes will develop and the wine is then said to have a silky persistence. This strain is very compatible with malolactic-bacteria. GRAPE VARIETY PAIRING:  Chardonnay, Gewurztraminer, Riesling, Roussanne, Sauvignon Blanc, Viognier. WINE STYLES:  Complex white and Rosé wines with citrus and floral notes. Useful for a wide range of applications, including mead and fruit cider fermentations. AROMA:  Tropical fruit and banana flavor. ALCOHOL TOLERANCE:  Up to 15% FERMENTATION RANGE:  15-30°C (59-86°F) INOCULATION RATE:  0.2-0.4g/L Data Sheet

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
