    Our top-selling yeast! White Labs California Ale yeast is known for its ability to be used in almost any style Ale. It produces a clean, dry, balanced beer. It also accentuates the flavor of the malt and hops in your homebrew. This strain was the first yeast strain produced by White Labs in 1995. When used in hoppy beers, it accentuates hop flavors and aromas and attenuates well, even for high-gravity beers. This strain can be used in almost any style of ale ranging from IPA to porter and even Kölsch, making it a great all-around house strain. WLP001 is a genetically different strain than other descendants of this classic yeast and many brewers prefer WLP001 over similar variations from other companies.

    Top Benefits of White Labs Dry Yeast

    • Performance You Can Rely On.  High live cell count and highly shelf-stable result in consistent fermentation performance with every batch.​​
    • Convenience of Brew Planning.  Extensive shelf life allows you to keep some sachets on hand for your next brew day or in case you ever run into a fermentation issue.  Ensure you have viable yeast ready to go even if you have to reschedule your brew day or encounter unforeseen issues like stuck or slow fermentations.
    • Easy-to-Use.  No rehydration or wort aeration is necessary due to the high sterol content and simple measurements of pitch rate by weight for hassle-free fermentations.
    • Gluten-Free.  Propagated using beet molasses and is 100% gluten-free.
    • Available Anywhere You Brew.  White Labs Yeast will now be available for global brewers who had challenges importing liquid yeast, with straightforward and more affordable delivery in dry format.

        Worked great, not sure worth the price

        I used 2 satchels for a 2L starter for brewing 10 gallons of DIPA and this yeast ripped through primary in 3 days. So very happy with the yeast quality, but not sure if this is "better" overall given the $20+ I spent on this yeast for the batch

        Very Clean and Easy to Use

        I can't get White Labs liquid anymore as most of my homebrew shops closed. I also don't like US-05. I know 001 and 05 originated from the same strain, but I have always felt 001 was much cleaner (personal preference). This dry yeast performs just as good as the liquid. Very happy with it!

        Good as the liquid

        I had shied away from dry yeasts since the 1990's, as they often left an odd taste in my finished beer. Have been a big fan of WLP001 for 20 years, at least. I decided to give the dry WLP001, a try, as hot weather shipping, even with the ice packs, was a little dicey with the liquid yeast. I am happy to say the dry yeast ferments the same, and had the same flavor profile. Bravo White Labs!

        The sachet I received seems to be one large clump. Every other dry yeast I have used has had loose granular yeast inside. Is this normal for this product?
