Description

  • Take Your Beers Tropical Bouquet to The Next Level
  • 50-200x Boost in Thiols When Used with Thiolized Yeast Strain
  • Contains Thiol Precursors
  • Derived From Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc Grapes
  • Maximize Flavor and Aroma with Cutting Edge Brewing Technology

Phantasm helps you unlock unreal natural flavors in your fermentation. Derived from the legendary Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc Grapes, Phantasm is a Thiol precursor powder that in the right fermentation conditions will unlock large amounts of free thiols like 3SH bringing tropical, passionfruit aromas to your beer. Thiols pair exceptionally well with Esters and Terpenes and can bring depth and complexity to a range of styles including IPA, Lagers and Mixed Fermentation.

For best results, add Phantasm during the whirlpool at rates of 1 – 2 lbs per bbl (1 – 2.5 oz per 5-gallon batch) and ferment with a thiolized yeast strain. Phantasm will bring a touch of fermentables to your beer, around 0.3°P (1.0012 SG) alongside a slight pH drop.

In discussion with the creator of Phantasm Jos Ruffell, we talked about the dosage rates varying.  The market had a dosage rate recommendation of 2.5oz per 5 gallons. Especially when using the latest thiol boosting yeasts from Omega you don't specifically need 2.5oz as even 1 oz is going to provide a significant thiol boost.  So we packaged it down in 1oz increments so that you can decide exactly how much you want to put in. For us here at MoreBeer! 1 oz provides a nice boost and is a reasonable cost per batch.  If you want to go extreme feel free to add more.

The description above states that Phantasm should be added during whirlpool. However, the Specification Sheet says to add Phantasm during active fermentation. Will either one work?
Kerry Shaver on Jan 12, 2023
BEST ANSWER: I add it at the end of the boil just after I turn my burner. I believe it is just powder derived from wine grapes so either should work. I would recommend adding at whirlpool or to your wort at the end of the boil. This with guard against any cross contamination.
