Description
Species: Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Profile: This strain is a classic, true top cropping yeast strain from a traditional brewery in Cologne, Germany. Beers will exhibit some of the fruity character of an ale, with a clean lager like profile. It produces low or no detectable levels of diacetyl. This yeast may also be used to produce quick-conditioning pseudo-lager beers and ferments well at cold 55-60 °F (13-16 °C) range. This powdery strain results in yeast that remain in suspension post fermentation. It requires filtration or additional settling time to produce bright beers.
Flocculation: Low
Apparent Attenuation: 73 - 77%
Apparent ABV Tolerance: 10%
Temperature Range:56-70°F (13-21°C)
