Wyeast Liquid Lambic Yeast

Includes 2 ice packs and an insulated mailer to help keep your liquid yeast cold during transit.  The Insulated Mailer option is a great way to extend the length of time your ice remains cool!  These special envelopes contain self expanding foam, which creates a form-fitting container that protects and insulates liquid yeast.  This upgrade includes the Insulating Envelope and 2 Ice Packs. This option fits a number of yeast vials, pouches, or cans, and is made from thick foam insulation.  Because different yeast take up different space, each producer will fit a different quantity in this mailer.  See the chart below for what quantity of what yeast will fit inside. Yeast Producer / Brand Quantity that will fit in Insulated Mailer White Labs 6 Imperial Yeast 3 Wyeast 3 GigaYeast 3 Omega 3 To purchase, simply add however many Insulated Mailers will be needed to contain however many yeast are in your cart. Please Note!  Any additional yeast will be shipped outside of the mailer.  This option includes ice, and no additional ice needs to be purchased. Please note - Liquid yeast will not arrive cold even when shipped with ice packs. Ice packs and insulated mailing options are designed to keep the yeast colder for longer during shipment, but they will not ensure that your yeast arrives cold. We will not replace liquid yeast that arrives warm. During warmer months we strongly recommend you choose dry yeast.

3763 contains a blend of lambic cultures that produce beer with a complex, earthy profile and a distinctive pie cherry sourness Belgian style ale strain, a sherry strain, two Brettanomyces strains, a Lactobacillus culture, and a Pediococcus culture produce the desirable flavor components of these beers as they are brewed in West Flanders Activator Smack-Pack System™ "proofs" the yeast and shortens lag time when it hits your wort When smacked, the Activator™ packet releases sugars and nutrients to initiate the culture's metabolism Wyeast has been a pioneer in craft brewing for over 35 years and is committed to creating the finest fermentation products available Although beneficial, cultures do not need to be activated prior to inoculation Our blend of lambic cultures produce beer with a complex, earthy profile and a distinctive pie cherry sourness. Aging up to 18 months is required for a full flavor profile and acidity to develop. Specific proportions of a Belgian style ale strain, a sherry strain, two Brettanomyces strains, a Lactobacillus culture, and a Pediococcus culture produce the desirable flavor components of these beers as they are brewed in West Flanders. Propagation of this culture is not recommended and will result in a change of the proportions of the individual components. This blend will produce a very dry beer due to the super-attenuative nature of the mixed cultures. Attenuation: 80% Flocculation: Low - High Alcohol Tolerance: 11% Optimum Fermentation Temp: 65-85°F Cell Count: 100 Billion Styles: Flanders Brown Ale/Oud Bruin Fruit Lambic Gueuze Straight (Unblended) Lambic For best results we always recommend ordering an ice pack with your liquid yeast. Please Note: When choosing an ice pack option beware that the liquid yeast will not arrive cold even when shipped together. Ice packs and insulated mailing options are designed to keep the yeast colder for longer during shipment, but they will not ensure that your yeast arrives cold. We will not replace liquid yeast that arrives warm. During warmer months we strongly recommend you choose dry yeast.

3278 blend contains yeast and bacteria cultures important to the production of spontaneously fermented beers of the Lambic region A Belgian style ale strain, a sherry strain, two Brettanomyces strains, a Lactobacillus culture, and a Pediococcus culture produce the desirable flavor components of these beers as they are brewed in Brussels Activator Smack-Pack System™ "proofs" the yeast and shortens lag time when it hits your wort When smacked, the Activator™ packet releases sugars and nutrients to initiate the culture's metabolism Wyeast has been a pioneer in craft brewing for over 35 years and is committed to creating the finest fermentation products available Although beneficial, cultures do not need to be activated prior to inoculation This blend of yeast and bacteria comes from a Belgian Brewery and is maintained with a selection of Saccharomyces Cerevisiae, which include Belgian-style wheat beer yeast, a sherry yeast, Brettanomyces Bruxellensis yeast, Brettomyces Lambicus yeast, Lactobacillus Delbruckii, and finally Pediococcus Cerevisiae. While amazingly complex, this mixture does not include all the possible cultures found in Belgian Lambics. However, it is representative of the organisms which are most important for the desirable flavor components of these beer styles.

5335 produces moderate levels of acidity. Commonly found in gueuze, lambics, sour brown ales and Berliner Weisse Always used in conjunction with S. cerevisiae and often with various wild yeast Activator Smack-Pack System™ "proofs" the yeast and shortens lag time when it hits your wort When smacked, the Activator™ packet releases sugars and nutrients to initiate the culture's metabolism Wyeast has been a pioneer in craft brewing for over 35 years and is committed to creating the finest fermentation products available Although beneficial, cultures do not need to be activated prior to inoculation Lactobacillus is used in the production in a wide array of sour beer styles as well as many food products.  This particular strain is ideal for the acidification of beers, either pre or post cerivisiae fermentation.  Can be use to kettle sour. Lactic acid bacteria isolated from a Belgian brewery. This culture produces moderate levels of acidity and is commonly found in many types of beers including gueuze, lambics, sour brown ales and Berliner Weisse. It is always used in conjunction with S.cerevisiae and often with various wild yeast. Use in beers below 10 IBU is recommended due to the culture’s sensitivity to hop compounds.
