Ice for Whitelabs
WLPICE
Some of our customers request that we ice liquid yeast for transit. We offer
this service to anyone who lives in a hot climate or feels they would like the
service. Is it necessary to achieve a good ferment? Probably not. Will the yeast
be in better health when they arrive at your door? Yes.
So while you can achieve a good ferment without paying for ice the yeast will
most likely have increased viability if shipped with ice and that means a faster
start. Faster starts reduce lag times and the risk of off flavors. The ice and
insulation will keep yeast cool for 1-3 days depending on temperatures. This
at least extends the time they stay cool while in transit to you. You can order
as many packs as you like. If you are purchasing multiple vials we do recommend
ordering multiple ice packs.
