This strain is the classic farmhouse ale yeast. A traditional yeast that is spicy with complex aromatics, including bubble gum. It is very tart and dry on the palate with a mild fruitiness. Expect a crisp, mildly acidic finish that will benefit from elevated fermentation temperatures. This strain is notorious for a rapid and vigorous start to fermentation, only to stick around 1.035 S.G. Fermentation will finish, given time and warm temperatures. Warm fermentation temperatures at least 90°F (32°C) or the use of a secondary strain can accelerate attenuation.

A liquid Malo-lactic culture that contains a blend of ER1A and Ey2d malo-lactic cultures suitable for a fermentation pH of 2.9 or above and temperatures as low as 55°F (13°C).
Alcohol Tolerance: 12-18%
Optimum Fermentation Temp: 55-95°F
Notes from Wyeast: Fresh liquid cultures of L. oenos ER1A and EY2D provide rapid and complete malic acid to lactic acid reduction to balance and soften wines. ER1A and EY2D perform well in conditions of low pH and cool cellaring. Typical conditions of high wine acidity can be improved by reducing the harsh, sharp malic acid in the wine to the softer and smoother lactic acid. Other flavor improvements including vanilla and buttery notes can be anticipated. Natural occurring malic acid bacteria on fruit may be of inferior quality or quantity to complete malo-lactic fermentation. Vinter's Choice™ malolactic cultures are suitable of pH 2.9 or greater and cellar temperatures as low as 55°F.
Test Results (At this time we do not know what strains of malo-lactic were involved in this test.):
The performance of two strains of Leuconostoc oenos, Er1a and Ey2d, isolated from Oregon wines was evaluated in experimentally and commercially produced wines.
Experimental lots of Chardonnay, Pinot Blanc, and Pinot Noir were inoculated at the end of yeast fermentation at 18°C with approximately 106 cfu/ml of Er1a, Ey2d, ML-34, PSU-1, MLT-kli, and BB44-40
Under low pH conditions, the Oregon strains completed MALOLACTIC fermentations (MLF) more rapidly than the other commercially available strains: at pH less than 3.3 Er1a completed MLF in an average of 48 days, Ey2d in 94 days, MLT-kli in 127 days, and the other strains in 143 days or longer.
At pH greater than 3.4 all the strains completed MLF within 31 days.
Commercial wines were inoculated during yeast fermentations with 0.5 to 2.0% V/V Er1a and Ey2d grape juice cultures (109 cfu/ml) and wine cultures (108 cfu/ml). Er1a completed MLF in 1-2 months at cellar temperatures of 15°C or higher, but was sensitive to cooler temperatures.
Ey2d was more cold tolerant and completed MLF in 2-3 months at temperatures in 12-15°C
In addition, Ey2d retained MALOLACTIC activity at temperatures as high as 80°C when all other strains including Er1a were inactive.

I was a doubter at first, but after using the Wyeast Cider strain, I am now a convert. I used to ferment my ciders with English Ale (sweet) or Champagne (dry) yeast, but no longer! I have found a delicious Cider yeast that highlights the flavor of the apples and does not ferment too dry. After we started stocking this strain, it became impossible to keep it in stock during the harvest season!

If you're looking for a fast, gentle, reliable, professional quality fill for your wine, then this is the filler for you. Hand-made to order by XpressFill in southern California, these fillers represent the very best available to home winemakers.
This filler features a built-in self-priming diaphragm pump to draw your wine from your tanks or barrels up to the filler. The action of the diaphragm pump is non-aerative and gentle, and it has the capability of pulling your wine from quite a distance away.
The nozzles on XpressFill's Level Filler are independently actuated by microswitches when a bottle is put in place for filling. Flow stops automatically at the preset fill level. This makes it easy to put half the bottles on for filling and take the other half off for corking without having down time in between. The bottle shelf is adjustable in height to accommodate a wide range of bottles.
Fills approximately 200 bottles/hr.
Add the optional Gas Flush System and the filler will automatically gas-purge your bottles prior to filling. There is no additional button to push or lever to flip, the filler handles it all!

The Carbonated Beverage Filler is a counter-pressure machine that fills bottles with pre-carbonated beverages without losing carbonation; The XpressFill Carbonated Beverage Filler uses a high-tech sensor probe that shuts off the fill at the perfect height in the bottle neck every time, regardless of bottle variations.
Even though this machine is designed for carbonated beverages, it can also be used for still products as long as they are fed to the filler using a lightly pressurized keg or pump. That means that you can use this for your normal bottling as well as for those special bottle-conditioned beers too!
The Carbonated Beverage Filler is also suitable for filling Charmat-style sparkling wines, at a maximum operating pressure of 60 psi.
The filler will accommodate bottles up to 4 inches in diameter and up to 13.5 inches tall. This covers most standard sized 12 oz, 22 oz and 750 mL bottles.

Help eliminate oxidation in your bottling process by using XpressFill volume-based filling system!
Gravity-based systems usually involve wine being transferred to a holding tank, and unless your bottles and holding tank are pre-flushed with inert gas, some degree of oxidation is inevitable. XpresFill bottling systems have a closed pathway with a self-priming pump. They also have as an optional built-in sparging (pre-flushing) system that uses Nitrogen or Argon to pre-flush your bottles.
To use, place two bottles under the filling spouts, push the gas button (optional at addtional cost) to flush the bottles with inert gas. Then hit the Fill button which pulls the wine from your barrel or stainless storage tank, distributes 750ml of wine to each bottle, and shuts off automatically when done. It is truly that simple. Each fill cycle lasts 20 seconds. Realistically with bottle movement (and talking and drinking!) expect to fill about 200 bottles per hour with the 2 spout and 400 bottles per hour with the 4 spout. There is also a manual mode allowing you to top up bottles or fill odd size bottles (connect tubing and fill magnums for example.)
You my have seen this system for sale before as the Vigneron. XpressFill purchased Vigneron and redesigned the unit to be driven by a digital controller. The result is a unit that works much better. MoreWine! has tested the unit and we are happy with the performance.
The XpressFill is a a volume based system that fills each bottle with a set volume of wine (usually 750ml per bottle.) The fill is accurate to within +/- 1.5ml. However, bottles themselves can vary in volume by a couple percent and when you are filling by volume this can result in different fill heights, especially if you fill into the bottle neck, where differences are exaggerated by the small diameter of the neck. Fill heights will therefore vary from bottle to bottle but differences are usually 1/2" or less.
The two spout filler features a 3/8" inlet.
Further protect your wine from oxidation when using an Xpress Fill by adding the Gas Flush option to your filler. Push the gas flush button for as long as you like prior to each fill cycle. Inert gas will be forced into the bottle displacing most air, greatly reducing oxidation during the bottling process. You will need to supply an Argon or Nitrogen tank, regulator, and section of 1/4 in. tubing to connect an inert gas source to the machine.

The industries first book dedicated to yeast fermentation in beer. A book that will change homebrewing for many years to come.
Chris White of Whitelabs and Jamil Zainasheff take you on a path of understanding the powers of fermentation and all its mysteries. Anyone can design a recipe and make wort, but can you properly ferment a beer? This book will tell you everything about yeast and more. A must have for all homebrewers.
Yeast Hulls are ususally the first action when you have a stuck or sluggish alcoholic or malolactic fermentation. Yeast Hulls are essentially dead yeast cells that absorb auto toxic yeast by-products that could be inhibiting your active yeast or ML culture from doing their job - finishing your fermentation! Yeast Hulls are then typically followed by Pro-Desert in the case of a stuck alcoholic fermentation or Acti Ml in the case of a stuck ML ferment.
As a side note, Yeast Hulls are included in the Fermaid K mix of nutrients to help prevent problem ferments from the onset. The reason you would not use Fermaid K for most stuck ferments is that Fermaid K contains DAP. If DAP (Diammonium Phosphate) is added to the ferment past the point of metabolization by the yeast it could potentially leave an unwanted, residual flavor. Use at the rate of .5 to .9 grams per gallon. If stored in a cool, dry place, will last up to 3 years.
A rough approximate of weight is 1 tsp = 2 grams. We highly recommend using a scale to weigh the product for an accurate dose. We do not recommend relying on these rough conversions for accurate dosage rates.
Yeast starters offer higher cell counts at the time the yeast is pitched, leading to faster, healthier fermentations and better tasting beer!
You may be wondering how to make a yeast starter. Well, lucky for you this kit contains everything you need for making your own yeast starter right out of the box, including step-by-step instructions!
This is the most common size used to make yeast starters using liquid yeast, great for higher alcohol beer and cold fermented lagers.
In the lab world, these flasks are known as "Student Grade," meaning there may be some cosmetic flaws in the glass, and the volume measurements are approximate due to variations in the thickness of the glass walls of the flask. This makes it a great flask for making yeast starters--at a great price!
We do not recommend the use of an electric element with these flasks. If this cannot be avoided, we suggest using a larger pot as a hot water bath on the stove.
