Hard Seltzer

Propper Seltzer is specially formulated to power your favorite beer yeast through a healthy sugar-based fermentation in as little as 7 days. One dose per five gallons will provide all the nutrients needed for a quick, successful batch of hard seltzer. For an even faster fermentation, we recommend Omega Yeast's Lutra™ Kveik strain, which can get the job done in as little as 4 days' time.  One (1) pack provides yeast nutrient for (5) five gallons of sugar wort at 1.060 (15°P) or lower. Recommended for use with these strains: Lutra Kveik Hornindal Kveik Voss Kveik Espe Kveik Directions: Add sugar to hot water and stir to dissolve. Boil for 10 min, measure gravity and adjust. Once desired gravity is reached, turn off the heat source and add Propper Seltzer nutrient. Transfer sugar base to the fermenter at desired ferm. temp. Aerate by shaking or oxygenating. Pitch your favorite Omega Yeast strain and let it roll.

Put down the mash paddle and grab an oar! Instead of fighting the overwhelming current of industry trends, let's ride these rapids and shred some wild water gnar! Hard Seltzer is here to stay thanks to popular brands like White Claw and Truly, and as a homebrewer you've probably already been asked by friends or family to whip up a batch. The truth is that hard seltzer is very simple to prepare, and any level brewer can make it at home. We've put together a simple kit that includes sugar, yeast, nutrients, and a packet of salts to adjust your water to a proper seltzer profile. Everything is included except for the water -- sorry, but have you ever looked into shipping water? It's stoopid expensive! Mandatory Tagline: You'll be laid back like an otter when you're drinking Wild Water! Makes 5 gallons Estimated Original Gravity: 1.042 SRM (Color Range): 0 IBU's: 0 Estimated Alcohol Percentage: 5.5% Recommended Carbonation Level: 4 volumes Included: 5 lbs Corn Sugar Water Modifier Salt Packet (added at the same time as the sugar) Yeast Yeast Rehydration Nutrient Yeast Fermentation Nutrient Fining Agent Not Included: RO or Distilled Water Priming Sugar (if bottling) Kayak The new and improved Wild Water Hard Seltzer kit features retooled water modifier salt packets for increased fermentation performance. The previous single salt pack has been split into separate A and B salt packs, which we found significantly increased the buffering capacity to prevent the fermentation pH from dropping below the tolerance level of the yeast, leading to far fewer instances of stuck fermentation or not reaching the target final gravity. Please note: each kit includes an extra packet of yeast and FermFed (DAP Free). Read the instructions carefully, and only use the extra packets if you experience a stuck fermentation. Tip: to ensure your seltzer ferments all the way out, we recommend keeping the fermentation temperature above 70°F. Although it is unlikely to happen with the buffers included in the Water Modifier Salt Packets, a drop in pH below 3 can cause the fermentation to stop. Adding a few grams of chalk, baking soda, or potassium carbonate will bring the pH back up. This should only be done if you have measured the pH and found it is too low.

The ideal yeast for producing a very neutral, clean base for hard seltzers, canned cocktails, further distillation, etc.  Works with malt or sugar fermentations Includes nutrients and pH buffers to keep fermentation humming to finish  Able to handle high levels of ethanol and osmotic pressure Ferments clean up to 80°F ​Our motto is to Empower Your Creative Vision. Origin is a unique style of yeast used to create a neutral alcoholic base that acts as the Origin upon which you layer other flavors. Perfect for Hard Seltzers, Canned Cocktails, and whatever else you can dream up. Also great for neutral washes designed for distillation and tough to ferment honey-based mead fermentations. Works on both sugar, honey, and malt-based fermentations. The secret sauce is a very neutral, high alcohol tolerant yeast combined with nutrients and pH buffers. The non-urea-based nutrients help the yeast in simple sugar mediums naturally low in nutrients. pH buffers ensure a high enough pH to allow the yeast to run to completion in even the toughest of situations. The yeast strain used in Origin is a very low producer of H2S and fruity esters resulting in a clean final product. Origin stays clean at higher fermentation temperatures up to 80°F. Origin could technically be called a Turbo Yeast being packed with nutrients. However, we don't like that association as many turbo Yeasts are not selected and assembled for quality and flavor but rather price and speed. Turbo Yeasts also do not include pH buffers. Origin will work with all commonly used sugars, including sucrose, dextrose, and liquid invert sugar. When fermenting wort from malted barley, use our Brutzyme Glucoamylase Enzyme to break down α-1,4 and α-1,6 glycosidic linkages of starch, dextrins, and oligosaccharides for a drier, more fully attenuated final product. Pilot batches should always be performed to find the optimum final product for your further vision. Directions: Add 10 to 20 g per gal (2.5 to 5 g per liter) directly into your fermentation with no hydration required. Ferment between 65 to 80°F (18-27°C). We recommend starting with a dosage of 15 g per gal (4 g per liter) and adjusting as desired in future batches.

Seltzer-Specific Formula: Provides the precise Free Amino Nitrogen (FAN) and nutrients lacking in sugar bases for a clean fermentation. Rapid & Clean Fermentation: Achieve a finished seltzer in as few as 5 days with a neutral flavor profile. Prevents Off-Flavors: Designed to help yeast avoid producing common off-flavors (fusel alcohols, acetaldehyde, sulfur). Easy to Use: Dissolves quickly and completely without the need for stirring or heating. Nutrient blends designed for fermenting wine or beer simply don’t cut it when it comes to crafting seltzers. Both grape juice and wort naturally contain baseline levels of nutrients and free amino nitrogen (FAN) that are absent in seltzer bases. Simply increasing the dosage of nutrients intended for beer or wine fermentation isn’t effective. While this approach may meet the nutrient requirements, yeast need a certain level of FAN to ferment seltzers efficiently and cleanly. Unfortunately, most nutrient products on the market fall short of this mark. Some solutions promote nitrogen bound within dead yeast cells, like our own FermFed DAP Free, as being suitable for seltzers. However, after extensive trials, we’ve found that this approach doesn’t deliver the neutral flavor profile needed for the best seltzers. While fermentations may complete, they often do so with unwanted yeast-derived off-flavors. Yeasts that struggle to finish tend to produce fusel alcohols, acetaldehyde, and sulfur compounds. Our Dynamo 800 Nutrient is specifically formulated to provide yeast with everything they need to achieve a clean fermentation in as few as 5 days. When designing this nutrient, a decision was made to make flavor the top priority. Additionally, it dissolves easily without the need for stirring or heating, making it simple and efficient to use. Dynamo includes both organic and inorganic nitrogen to achieve a fast, clean fermentation in the challenging environment of seltzer production. Like the 800-meter race, it’s not just about pure speed—it’s about endurance and precision. While some products prioritize fermentation speed alone, we believe Dynamo 800 Nutrient strikes the perfect balance. It has been designed to go the distance and deliver the best flavor, especially when paired with CellarScience VELO. Rapid Start: Can finish fermenting in as few as 5 days. Specifically Formulated for Seltzer Fermentation: Designed to meet the unique nutrient needs of seltzer. Does Not Need Heat to Dissolve: Specifically designed without the need for stirring. Optimal Free Amino Nitrogen (FAN) levels: Provides essential nutrients absent in sugar-based fermentations, including both inorganic and organic nitrogen sources. Prevents Off-Flavors: Helps yeast avoid producing fusel alcohols, acetaldehyde, and sulfur compounds. Fast, Clean Fermentation: Supports efficient fermentation without compromising taste. Balanced Approach: Prioritizes both fermentation speed and final flavor. Proven Results: Extensively tested to outperform other yeast nutrients.   Sold in pre-measured pitch sizes for 2-Gallon, 5-Gallon, 1 BBL, 5 BBL batches as well as a 5-LB bulk pack.
