White Labs - East Coast
WLP008
The "Brewer Patriot" strain can be used to reproduce many of the American
versions of classic beer styles. Similar neutral character of WLP001, but less
attenuation, less accentuation of hop bitterness, increased flocculation, and
a little tartness. Very clean and low esters. To ferment this yeast properly
pitch
at 65-66F and let it
rise to 66-68F. Ferment for 10-14 days in the primary.
Great yeast for golden, blonde,
honey, pales and German alt style ales.
Attenuation: 70-75%.
Flocculation: Medium to High.
Optimum Fermentation Temp: 68-73?F.
Wyeast Equivalent: 1318 London III

NOTE: IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT LIQUID YEAST BE SHIPPED VIA 2-DAY AIR.
MANY CUSTOMERS ORDER YEAST SEPERATELY FROM OTHER ITEMS TO REDUCE SHIPPING COSTS. ICE PACKS ARE AVAILABLE AND RECOMMENDED DURING SUMMER.
IT IS ALWAYS ADVISABLE TO PROOF YOUR YEAST (see "YEAST STARTERS") AND/OR HAVE DRY BACKUP YEAST.
IF YOU THINK YOUR YEAST HAS BEEN DAMAGED IN TRANSIT OR ARE MAKING A HIGH GRAVITY BEER, PLEASE MAKE A YEAST STARTER BEFORE PITCHING. WE CAN REPLACE YEAST THAT DOES NOT START, BUT CANNOT REPLACE A FAILED BATCH.
