Fermentis | SafBrew™ BR-8 | Brettanomyces Conditioning Yeast | 100 g

    Description

    • Specifically selected for bottle or cask conditioning, ensuring proper carbonation and nuanced flavor development over time
    • Delivers the sought-after phenolic flavors (barnyard, horse, leather) of Brettanomyces with greater control and consistency than traditional wild cultures
    • Fermentis active dry yeast offers reliability, ease-of-use, and consistency to home and professional beverage makers across the world

    SafBrew™ BR-8 is the first Brettanomyces bruxellensis yeast available to brewers in a dry microgranular format. It offers all the flavor benefits of ‘wild’ Brett yeast, but with more control and reliability, eliminating the risk of over-carbonation and gushing after bottling.

    Selected specifically for secondary fermentation in bottles or casks, SafBrew™ BR-8 produces phenolic compounds that create a distinctive finishing touch which evolves over time as the beer is aged, with funkier notes (barnyard, horse, leather) nicely balanced by refreshing, fruity notes.

    Instructions for Use:
    SafBrew™ BR-8 should not be rehydrated directly in the beer.

    Sprinkle the yeast in minimum 10 times its weight of sterile water at a temperature of 77°F to 84°F. Leave to rest 15 to 30 minutes. Gently stir until obtaining a yeast cream.

    Usage:
    Add 0.67 to 1.34 oz of sugar per gal of beer (5 to 10 grams of sugar per liter of beer) to obtain an additional saturation of 0.33 to 0.67 oz/gal of CO2 (2.5 to 5.0 g/L of CO2). Pitch the sweetened beer at fermentation temperature with the rehydrated yeast.

    Carbonation will be achieved in 1 to 3 months of maturation.

    *At the end of refermentation, the beer can be cooled down and will gain in roundness after 2 to 3 weeks.

    *Carbonation at lower end temperatures (e.g. 59°F / 15°C) can take over 3 months.

    • Alcohol Tolerance: 8.5% ABV
    • Optimum Fermentation Temp: 59-77°F

    *See the technical data sheet below for more information on rehydration, usage and storage.
