Omega Yeast | OYL-021 Hefeweizen Ale I | Beer Yeast | Double Pitch | 225 Billion Cells

    Description

    • OYL-021 is a classic German wheat strain presenting banana and clove
    • Esters turn up with increased temperatures, wort density and decreased pitch rate
    • Double pitch size with a minimum of 225 billion cells—twice the size of the standard yeast pitch
    • Proprietary propagation methods generate fresh, metabolically strong yeast cells and optimal biomass
    • Omega Yeast is founded on curiosity and innovation, expertly producing common workhorse varieties and many unique strains

    Hefeweizen Ale I is a classic German wheat strain. It's a cloudy, big top cropper with the archetypical banana and clove character you expect in a hefe yeast. Ester notes turn up with increased fermentation temp, wort density and decreased pitch rate. Ferment at the lower end of its range to mute the ester expression and highlight notes of cloves. Over-pitching can lessen the banana, so plan accordingly. If you get a little too much sulfur, let the beer age longer and to condition out. See also Belgian Ale A (OYL-024) for an alternate complexity.

    Attenuation: 73-77%
    Flocculation: Low
    Alcohol Tolerance: 10% ABV
    Optimum Fermentation Temp: 64-75°F
    Cell Count: 225 Billion
    Strain Type: Ales
     

    Please Note: For best results we Always recommend ordering an Ice Pack with your liquid yeast. Ice Packs can be found below in the "You might Also Need" section.

     

    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.
