Please Note: When choosing an ice pack option beware that the liquid yeast will not arrive cold even when shipped together.

Imperial Organic is the best and this seemed like a good fit for a berlinerweisse.

Would I add the whole package to a one gallon batch?

Wayne Liddy on Jan 13, 2019

BEST ANSWER: Hi Wayne - You could use half of the package for 1 gallon but also refer to this calculator - http://www.mrmalty.com/calc/calc.html

Won't use it again

Pitched 2 packages into 10 gallons of well oxygenated 1.064 wort. No blow off activity even with temp into high 70's. s.g. hovering about 1.022 after 3 weeks. I hope it will drop further with more time. Taste is VERY tart, with a lot of underlying sweetness. Might make a good BBQ sauce, but not something I want to drink if it doesn't attenuate further.

Response from MoreFlavor

Sorry to hear about your bad experience with this yeast blend. It is interesting that you've gotten tartness developed while still having so much residual sugar. A couple ways to salvage the batch would be to either add an additional pitch of brettanomyces and a healthy dose of patience or perhaps a powdered amylase enzyme to reduce the starches to sugars that the microbes can metabolise.

We really appreciate the honesty and value great feedback like this as it helps us improve our products and those of our partnered suppliers. Cheers!

Nice aroma!

I can just drink this yeast. When I opened this pack, it smelled like a 3 year old aged geuze.
It’s still working on my beer so I can’t tell how good it is as of now. But I believe this might work out pretty good.

Wilds made Easy

Definitely recommended for those wanting to do wild beers without the uncertainty. My experience is this blend will make it start out young being mildly sour and mature into a horse blanket funky beer over the course of 4 months using a light wheat recipe. Flavor is good without being sharp or overwhelming.
