Description

Homebrewers love this commercial English Ale yeast for its big, clean flavor; its rapid fermentation; and its highly flocculant character.
 
Widely recommended for practically any American or English style beer, S-04 yeast a rapid starter and finisher which settles out extremely well, leading to a clean finished beer. Great to keep a few packets as back-ups or just to use as a less-expensive alternative to liquid cultures.
 
The manufacturer states the strain is directly pitchable. For activation or proofing, suspend yeast in 4 oz of warm water (85-100F). Do not stir. Let stand for 15 minutes then stir gently. Add an equal amount of wort to your solution. Cover, let sit for five minutes, and pitch.
 
Recommended temperature range: 64F-72F.

Great quality.
Great quality expires in mid 2020 which is great for me. Most important is shipping was fast.

This worked great for a winter warmer I brewed. I like using dry yeast and making a starter 2 days before brewday

Super fast
Fast, violent fermentation. Use a blow off hose, not an airlock. Flocculates quickly and completely. Will use again.

It's a workhorse
Whatever styles you're prone to brewing and yeasts that you usually use, every home-brewer should have a packet of S04 and S05 in the fridge. Great in a bind, and can work wonders for improvised brew days.
