Description

  • Will create a slightly higher level of acidity to give your beer a very crisp finish
  • Double pitch size with a minimum of 200 billion cells—twice the size of the standard yeast pitch

This is the traditional German strain used to produce world class weizen beers where big banana aroma is required. Balanced with mild clove, depending on your wort profile, this strain will produce amazing beers. Stefon will create a slightly higher level of acidity to give your beer a very crisp finish. Slightly underpitching will help increase the banana character.

Please Note: For best results we Always recommend ordering an Ice Pack with your liquid yeast. Ice Packs can be found below in the "You might Also Need" section.

Please Note: When choosing an ice pack option beware that the liquid yeast will not arrive cold even when shipped together. Ice packs and insulated mailing options are designed to keep the yeast colder for longer during shipment, but they will not ensure that your yeast arrives cold. We will not replace liquid yeast that arrives warm. During warmer months we strongly recommend you choose dry yeast.

Heard good things about the brand and their new packaging. My first liquid yeast for a non-IPA brew

Imperial Yeast is awesome. Making a Hefeweizen so this should be perfect.

Blow off tube!!
Holy crap! This is my first time using this and I brewed up a roggenbier with this G01, NO starter although well aerated. I can’t imagine what would happen if I hadn’t have used a blow off tube! I’ll upload a video if I can but this is unbelievable. Smells good! I’ll update after this is done fermenting
Crazy!! Must use a blow off tube

Imp. Organic Stefon

Powerful Banana Aroma
If you want a big ole banana hefe, look no further. This yeast, like all that I have used from Imperial, started fast and finished strong without a starter. Full rolling fermentation 6 hours after pitching. No complaints. I just wish they would release an American Wheat variety.
