Sourvisiae® is a modern fermentation solution that produces sour beers through one simple fermentation step
Clean and neutral flavor, ideal for traditional and modern sour beer styles and an excellent base for fruited sours
Sourvisiae® is a bioengineered (GMO) strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Lallemand premium brewing yeast offers brewers unmatched consistency, reliability and purity from one batch of beer to the next
Sourvisiae® is a bioengineered ale yeast strain (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) capable of producing lactic acid during fermentation to provide brewers with an easy, reproducible, and mono-culture product for sour-style beer production.
Sourvisiae® contains a single genetic modification, a lactate dehydrogenase gene from a food microorganism, which enables the yeast to produce high levels of lactic acid, the main compound that gives sour beers their flavor. Sourvisiae® allows the brewer to ferment and sour the beer in one simple step, reducing cross-contamination risks, lowering costs, cutting total process time, and allowing brewers to obtain a consistent product. The brewing process is conducted without any modifications; Sourvisiae® is pitched just like conventional yeast and ferments in a normal fermentation time. Sourvisiae® does not produce other flavor compounds associated with Brettanomyces, Lachancea, or Lactic Acid Bacteria, providing a cleaner and more reproducible souring process, with much shorter fermentation times.
Microbiological Properties
Classified as a bioengineered Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a top-fermenting yeast. Finished product is released to the market only after passing a rigorous series of tests. *According to the ASBC and EBC methods of analysis.
Typical Analysis of Sourvisiae® Yeast:
Percent solids 93% – 96%
Living Yeast Cells ≥ 5 x 10 9 per gram of dry yeast
Wild Yeast < 1 per 10 6 yeast cells
Bacteria < 1 per 10 6 yeast cells
Brewing Properties
In Lallemand’s standard conditions, wort at 20°C (68°F), Sourvisiae® yeast exhibits:
Vigorous fermentation that can be completed in 5 days
Medium to High Attenuation and Medium to High Flocculation
Highly acidic and slightly fruity flavor and aroma
The optimal temperature range for Sourvisiae® yeast when producing traditional styles is 15°C (59°F) to 22°C (72°F).
Fermentation rate, fermentation time and degree of attenuation are dependent on inoculation density, yeast handling, fermentation temperature and nutritional quality of the wort.
Attenuation may appear lower due to the formation of lactic acid. Production of lactic acid does not result in a loss of CO2. When sugar is consumed to produce lactic acid, there is no change in density. Therefore, the amount of residual sugar in the finished beer is lower than the final density would imply.
This yeast produces a very acidic beer, with final beer pHs in the range of 3.0 and lactic acid in the range of 8 – 15g/L. Vigorous fermentation can be completed within 5 days.
The resulting flavor and aroma profile of the beer is a slightly fruity acidic beer. Because of the resulting low pH and highly acidic conditions, we do not recommend re-pitching this yeast.
Flavor and Aroma
Tangy, sour, slightly fruity

10% concentration. Phosphoric acid is said to be tasteless while lactic in large quantities can potentially leave flavor. Being a lower conentration than the Lactic, it is slower to change the pH of your water and therefore more forgiving to use.
Prevent volatile acidity in fermentation before it happens
Add at first signs of a problematic ferment to help limit the production of volatile acidity
Avoid a malolactic fermentation (MLF) in White Wines
Use as an insurance policy during barrel aging of Red Wines to reduce the risk of volatile acidity
CellarScience Killazyme is a lysozyme that is used to control and inhibit gram-positive lactic acid producing bacteria including Oenoccoccus, Pediococcus, and Lactobacillus. This is a tool winemakers can use throughout the winemaking process to limit bacteria contamination and the production of volatile acidity. Killazyme does not affect gram-negative Acetic Acid bacteria nor yeast.
Don’t Use Killazyme If You Are Coinoculating Yeast and ML
When performing a “secondary” malolactic fermentation (MLF) we want lactic acid Bacteria to convert the harsher malic acid into lactic acid. Mostly MLF fermentations are done sequentially with the sugar fermentation being completed first followed by the MLF fermentation second. If you are doing a co-inoculation of yeast and lactic acid bacteria during the primary ferment, do not use Killazyme.
Use Killazyme to Prevent Volatile Acidity in Fermentation
Killazyme can be added at the start of fermentation to limit lactic acid bacteria before it happens. Under certain situations lactic acid can use sugar or citric acid which it converts into acetic acid and volatile acidity.
Killazyme is effectively used at the start of fermentation when you know or suspect a slow to start fermentation. This might be a result of a cold soak or those ferments relying on native yeast. Once your yeast starts to rip, the potential action of lactic acid bacteria is greatly suppressed and the need for Killazyme is reduced.
At the back end of fermentation, slow, struggling fermentations caused by various reasons, such as temperature or high sugar, can cause bacteria to consume sugar and citric to produce acetic acid and volatile acidity. Additionally, if lactic acid bacteria fully converts the available malic acid the bacteria can pivot to sugar and citric product volatile acidity. In a problem ferment where the yeast are already struggling, volatile acidity acts as a double whammy suppressing yeast activity even further. If you suspect a problem finish, based on past experience or current conditions, Killazyme is a great tool to add at the start of fermentation
Use Killazyme at First Signs of Problem Finish
Killazyme can also be added at the first signs of a problematic ferment to help limit the production of volatile acidity. This reactive addition requires a heavier dosage than a preemptive addition as there is most likely volatile acidity already present.
Use Killazyme to Avoid MLF in White Wines
When fresh, crisp white wines are desired, Killazyme can be added at the start of a white wine fermentation, or at any point in tank or barrel, to block lactic acid activity and prevent MLF. We still always recommend a sterile filtration for commercial whites before bottling to prevent a later MLF in the bottle. . Killazyme is also great if you are going to be blending whites where one white went through and MLF and the other white did not.
Barrel Storage Protection of Reds
After MLF is complete and you storing wines in barrel Killazyme is a great insurance policy to reduce the risk of volatile acidity.
Use:
To Delay Malolactic Fermentation: Red Wine - add to grapes at 100 - 200 ppm, or 0.38 - 0.76 grams per gallon. White Wine - Add to must at 200 - 300 ppm, or 0.76 - 1.14 grams per gallon.
To Block Malolactic Fermentation: White Wine - Add to must or wine at 300 - 500 ppm, or 1.14 - 1.90 grams per gallon.
Stabilizing Wine After MLF is Complete: Add to barrel during storage at 250 - 500 ppm, or 0.95 - 1.90 grams per gallon.
When Blending Partial and Complete MLF Wines: Add immediately after blending at 300 - 500 ppm, or 1.14 - 1.90 grams per gallon, to reduce the risk of further malolactic fermentation (MLF). Within several days any lactic should expire.
For Sluggish or Stuck Yeast Fermentation: Red Wine - Add at 150 - 400 ppm, or 0.57 - 1.52 grams per gallon. White Wine - add at 300 - 500 ppm, or 1.14 - 1.90 grams per gallon.
You can make a 10% solution of Killazyme in water (100 grams per liter of water). However, we find the easiest method is to add the desired dry weight of Killazyme in 5x its weight of warm (tepid) water. Mix for one minute, allow this mixture to stand for 45 minutes and add to must, juice or wine while mixing well. Allow 24 - 48 hours for reaction to complete.
ACID yeast will complete both Lactic and Alcoholic fermentation on its own, producing an acidic beer with light notes of fruity floral esters
Shave days off your sour beer making process by skipping the kettle souring step altogether!
No need for added equipment to purge your kettle with CO2 or add heating to maintain high temps for lactic fermentation
To reduce acidity, pitch an ale yeast strain to stop souring and wrap up alcoholic fermentation
Ferment between 66-77°F
CellarScience offers high-quality yeast that is easy to use, consistent, and available at a tremendous value
Consistent, repeatable results without the need for kettle souring. ACID from CellarScience is a naturally selected, GMO-free yeast strain that has the ability to ferment and sour beer simultaneously. In a traditional kettle souring process, you'll need to pre-boil wort, purge it with CO2, pitch lactic acid, wrap and seal the kettle, and insulate or provide a heat source to maintain lactic acid fermentation temps that may be as high as 100°F+ depending on your chosen pitch. ACID allows brewers to bypass those steps and produce sour beers with the equipment they already own. Pitch directly in your fermenter and ACID yeast will complete both Lactic and Alcoholic fermentation on its own. When allowed to run its course, this yeast produces a rounded, refreshingly acidic beer with light notes of fruity floral esters.
If you wish to reduce acidity, simply pitch a regular ale yeast strain when the desired pH is obtained which will hault souring and complete the rest of the alcoholic fermentation.
Every batch is PCR tested to ensure quality.
Dosage:
Use at a rate of 80-120 grams per barrel, depending on wort temperature and gravity.
Direct Pitch or Rehydrate:
ACID yeast is designed to be sprinkled directly onto the surface of your wort with no oxygenation required in the initial fermentation. Our aerobic growth process makes this possible by creating dry yeast with high viability and high sterol levels. ACID yeast is pre-loaded with essential nutrients to ensure a successful, complete fermentation. While not required, some brewers prefer to rehydrate yeast. To hydrate yeast, first, sanitize the yeast brick and scissors. Use 10 grams of sterilized tap water between 85-95°F (29-35°C) mixed with 0.25 grams of FermStart per gram of yeast. Sprinkle yeast on the water. Allow the slurry to stand undisturbed for 20 minutes, then swirl. Use small amounts of wort to adjust to within 10°F (6°C) of wort temperature before pitching. Ferment between 66-77°F (19-25°C).
Optimum Fermentation Temp: 66-77°F
Flocculation: High

Contains up to 4.5% natural lactic acid to precisely adjust mash pH, promoting enhanced enzyme activity
By optimizing mash pH, this acidulated malt directly contributes to a higher brewhouse yield
Use as up to 5% of your grain bill
IREKS Sour Malt, also known as acidulated malt or saurmaltz, with its natural lactic acid content of up to 4.5% is an excellent solution for precisely adjusting mash pH. Compared to typical sour malts, IREKS contains roughly double the lactic acid, allowing you to use as little as half the amount to achieve the same results. This optimization directly supports enhanced enzyme activity, leading to a higher brewhouse yield.
The ideal addition rate of IREKS Sour Malt will vary for each brewery. Factors such as brewing water quality, mashing schedule, and grist composition all influence the precise amount needed for optimal results.
Comparable to Weyermann Acidulated Malt, but IREKS Sour Malt has a much higher lactic acid content of up to 4.5% rather than the 1-2% of the Weyermann. IREKS Sour Malt is able to achieve the same pH adjustment with less usage in the overall grain bill.
Malt Specification:
Color °L - 0.9-2.3
Moisture % - max. 8.0
pH Value - 3.35-3.70
Usage Rate - Up to 5%

3.4g per gallon adjusts acidity by +.1%. It will lower pH less than will tartaric acid. Malic acid is the acid found in apples and is therefore the best choice for adjusting ciders. Malic is less sour than tartaric acid and can also be used to make acid adjustments in Rieslings, Gewurztraminer, and Muscat varieties, though many winemakers still prefer to use tartaric acid in these situations. You would not want to add Malic acid to any wine that will undergo a malolactic fermentation. As a note: only half of the artificially added malic acid will convert to lactic acid during a malolactic fermentation.
A rough approximate of weight is 1 tsp = 2.7 grams. We highly recommend using a scale to weigh the product for an accurate dose. We do not recommend relying on these rough conversions for accurate dosage rates.

This Wyeast blend is recommended for any wine requiring malic acid reduction
It will cover a broad range of temperature and pH conditions
125mL is enough to innoculate 6 gallons of wine, cider, or mead
Wyeast has been a pioneer in craft brewing for over 35 years and is committed to creating the finest fermentation products available
A liquid Malo-lactic culture that contains a blend of ER1A and Ey2d malo-lactic cultures suitable for a fermentation pH of 2.9 or above and temperatures as low as 55°F (13°C).
Alcohol Tolerance: 12-18%
Optimum Fermentation Temp: 55-95°F
Notes from Wyeast: Fresh liquid cultures of L. oenos ER1A and EY2D provide rapid and complete malic acid to lactic acid reduction to balance and soften wines. ER1A and EY2D perform well in conditions of low pH and cool cellaring. Typical conditions of high wine acidity can be improved by reducing the harsh, sharp malic acid in the wine to the softer and smoother lactic acid. Other flavor improvements including vanilla and buttery notes can be anticipated. Natural occurring malic acid bacteria on fruit may be of inferior quality or quantity to complete malo-lactic fermentation. Vinter's Choice™ malolactic cultures are suitable of pH 2.9 or greater and cellar temperatures as low as 55°F.
Test Results (At this time we do not know what strains of malo-lactic were involved in this test.):
The performance of two strains of Leuconostoc oenos, Er1a and Ey2d, isolated from Oregon wines was evaluated in experimentally and commercially produced wines.
Experimental lots of Chardonnay, Pinot Blanc, and Pinot Noir were inoculated at the end of yeast fermentation at 18°C with approximately 106 cfu/ml of Er1a, Ey2d, ML-34, PSU-1, MLT-kli, and BB44-40
Under low pH conditions, the Oregon strains completed MALOLACTIC fermentations (MLF) more rapidly than the other commercially available strains: at pH less than 3.3 Er1a completed MLF in an average of 48 days, Ey2d in 94 days, MLT-kli in 127 days, and the other strains in 143 days or longer.
At pH greater than 3.4 all the strains completed MLF within 31 days.
Commercial wines were inoculated during yeast fermentations with 0.5 to 2.0% V/V Er1a and Ey2d grape juice cultures (109 cfu/ml) and wine cultures (108 cfu/ml). Er1a completed MLF in 1-2 months at cellar temperatures of 15°C or higher, but was sensitive to cooler temperatures.
Ey2d was more cold tolerant and completed MLF in 2-3 months at temperatures in 12-15°C
In addition, Ey2d retained MALOLACTIC activity at temperatures as high as 80°C when all other strains including Er1a were inactive.

White Koji is an exciting new specialty ingredient formulated specifically for the brewing industry
Instant kettle sour! No waiting for bacteria to do their thing. Just add directly to the mash to hit your target pH
Citric acid is naturally produced by Aspergillus luchuensis, offering a clean pleasant acidity when compared to lactic acid
The citric acid produced can be swapped for lactic acid in any application, such as sour beers or mash pH adjustments
CellarScience imports this Koji fresh from Japan's best sake and koji producer
Try using White Koji instead of acidulated malt in your next batch, especially nice in a Japanese rice lager!
This White Koji is formulated specifically for brewing beer with citric acid. Citric acid tends to have a less harsh astringency when compared to lactic acid. Used at a high percentage (20-25%), it makes a very clean kettle sour instantly. Rather than waiting overnight for the bacteria, you can hit your target pH during your standard mashing process. It can also be added to any recipe to adjust pH in the mash, similar to acidulated malt. This traditional ingredient, imported directly from Japan, is a great addition to your next craft Japanese rice lager!
Koji (Aspergillus luchuensis) is a fungus that is grown on rice during the Shochu making process and citric acid is naturally generated. Koji is grown on rice which breaks down starch in the rice to a more fermentable sugar source. Yeast can then use these sugars during fermentation to add a bright and refreshing citric acid character.
White Koji should be used at a rate of 20% - 25% of total grain in your recipe for souring. Use at a small percentage, as needed, for pH adjustment in the mash.
Koji in Beverage Making
Koji, a unique mold, is the heart of many beloved Japanese beverages, transforming starches into the sugars necessary for fermentation. While traditionally barley malting achieves this in whisky, innovative distillers are embracing koji, particularly yellow and white varieties, to unlock new flavor profiles. In shochu, white and black koji are favored for their citric acid production, ensuring a clean and stable fermentation, while yellow koji adds a touch of sake-like complexity. And of course, yellow koji reigns supreme in sake, orchestrating the intricate parallel fermentation that defines its character.
This ancient ingredient, with its diverse strains, offers a remarkable tool for crafting distinctive spirits. Whether it's the bright acidity of white koji in shochu, the delicate sweetness of yellow koji in sake, or the novel depth it brings to whisky, koji's transformative power is undeniable. By harnessing the unique properties of different koji varieties, producers are pushing the boundaries of flavor, creating beverages that are both rooted in tradition and boldly innovative.

Sorbistat K, Potassium Sorbate, ensures against renewed fermentation in wine when residual sugar is added post the initial ferment. Add at the rate of .5 to .75 grams per gallon (125-200ppm) in conjunction with .3 grams of meta-bisulphite (50ppm) per gallon. Use the higher end of the range (200 ppm) as the wine's pH approaches or exceeds 3.5 or when the alcohol conent of the wine is below 10%. Note: Will not stop an active fermentation. Potassium sorbate should not be used if the wine underwent an ML fermentation because sorbic acid (in the potassium sorbate) will react with lactic bacteria to produce a "geranium" smelling off-flavor.
A rough approximate of weight is 1 tsp = 2.3 grams. We highly recommend using a scale to weigh the product for an accurate dose. We do not recommend relying on these rough conversions for accurate dosage rates.

The ultimate portable draft faucet! Compact & lightweight with all the advantages of a standard NukaTap forward sealing faucet
Includes NukaTap Mini, Flow Control Ball Lock QD, Duotight Adapter, and Self Closing Spring
Forward-sealing design prevents beer residue from gumming up the faucet
Reduced first pour foam due to low thermal mass and conductivity
Perfect for mobile draft, mini kegs, sampling from fermenters, and can even be installed on your kegerator or keezer
Mini Design – Ideal Flow Rate for Small Systems
Most conventional beer faucets are designed with 3/8" diameter spouts so you can pour a pint in just over 10 seconds. This type of flow rate is great for high turnover bars and commercial venues but isn't necessary or even desirable for all applications. For compact portable systems and home draft systems, a slower flow rate is easier to control and further reduces foaming issues due to the low liquid volume stored in the body of the faucet.
The NukaTap Mini is also more ideal for pouring smaller doses. For example, cocktails where 5-8 oz of liquid is dispensed is difficult to control with a high flow rate tap. For portable systems, the NukaTap Mini with the Flow Control Ball Lock QD & Duotight Adapter assembly is small enough to literally put in your pocket, making it ideal for mini keg setups that you want to be portable or that you want to easily fit inside a domestic fridge where space is tight.
Forward Sealing
Forward sealing faucets are absolutely the way to go when it comes to beer taps. Old legacy taps still exist in the industry that are simply poorly designed. The issue with rear sealing faucets is that beer dries up on the internal piston. Aside from being unsanitary, as more and more beer dries up in these components the faucet can almost glue completely shut causing damaged seals or broken handles (this is particularly the case if it's left for some time to dry out with beer inside). These older legacy designs still exist probably due to poor education. The forward sealing designs do not have this problem and the tap drains out completely with no beer drying up on the mechanical moving parts in the same way. This makes the tap more sanitary and reduces maintenance. In many instances the price is similar so there is no reason to use a poorly designed rear sealing faucet. All NukaTap faucets are forward sealing.
Laminar Flow
Just like the NukaTap SS and NukaTap FC, the NukaTap Mini has been designed with laminar flow in mind. Laminar flow is critical for a beer tap as it means you will pour the beer with minimal foaming and a substantial reduction in wastage. Think about how many times a beer faucet opens and closes in its lifetime. 1,000 or maybe 10,000 times? Laminar flow saves wasted beer in excessive foam and the better laminar flow easily pays for itself in a reduction in lost beer. To use poorer designed faucets is essentially flushing money down the sink. Extensive modeling has been done on the NukaTap design to improve laminar flow.
Integrated Seals That Are Indestructible and More Sanitary
Unlike other designs, the NukaTap Mini body is made from Polyketone (POK) making it strong, robust, and able to be autoclaved. The seals are also over-molded from Santoprene® making them hard wearing so they will literally last for the lifetime of the tap without the need for replacement. Santoprene® and POK both have excellent resistance to chemicals such as caustic soda, peroxide, phosphoric acid, lactic acid, citric acid, acetic acid, and all common chemicals sold and used in the beverage industry. The seals internally are over-molded meaning no fissures or cracks exist for bacteria, crud, or yeast to hide.
Superior First Pour Foam Due to Low Thermal Mass and Conductivity
First pour foam is an issue caused by a warm tap body. For most faucets to pour well it's important to dispense enough beer to cool the tap body down to reach maximum performance. In addition to this the conductivity of the tab body also makes this worse so insulative materials simply work better than conductive materials. The NukaTap mini not only has very low thermal mass but is also highly insulative being made mostly from Santoprene® and POK. The combination of these two factors in conjunction with superior laminar flow makes for the lowest "first pour foam" effect out of any tap ever produced.
Long Shank Alternative
Most conventional beer faucets require a large 3/4" hole to be drilled through the side of your refrigerator, keezer, or cold box wall. Traditional long shanks also generally have a large volume of liquid that sits inside the wall unrefrigerated which is not ideal. New long shank alternatives developed for the NukaTap Mini are designed to suit any wall thickness and greatly reduces the stagnant beer sitting in the shank itself. For walls up to 2.7" thick, these wall mount shank kits include three screws, however if the wall is thicker, you can also use 6 small wood screws or something similar and attach three screws from the front and 3 from the back allowing you to go into any wall type.
Another advantage of this new design is the tap will never accidentally rotate. Typically, other long shank beer taps rely on the hex nut on the shank to be done up tight enough to prevent rotation but if the wall compresses (often the case with foam walls) the tap is allowed to rotate. This new design has three fixing points making it impossible for the tap to rotate accidentally as the interlocking teeth behind the collet allow you to set the angle and then do up the collet to fix the tap permanently in that position.

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.
The ultimate portable draft faucet! Compact & lightweight with all the advantages of a standard NukaTap forward sealing faucet Pair with a Flow Control Ball Lock QD & Duotight Adapter and the whole assembly fits in your pocket Forward-sealing design prevents beer residue from gumming up the faucet Reduced first pour foam due to low thermal mass and conductivity Perfect for mobile draft, mini kegs, sampling from fermenters, and can even be installed on your kegerator or keezer Mini Design – Ideal Flow Rate for Small Systems Most conventional beer faucets are designed with 3/8" diameter spouts so you can pour a pint in just over 10 seconds. This type of flow rate is great for high turnover bars and commercial venues but isn't necessary or even desirable for all applications. For compact portable systems and home draft systems, a slower flow rate is easier to control and further reduces foaming issues due to the low liquid volume stored in the body of the faucet. The NukaTap Mini is also more ideal for pouring smaller doses. For example, cocktails where 5-8 oz of liquid is dispensed is difficult to control with a high flow rate tap. For portable systems, the NukaTap Mini with the Flow Control Ball Lock QD & Duotight Adapter assembly is small enough to literally put in your pocket, making it ideal for mini keg setups that you want to be portable or that you want to easily fit inside a domestic fridge where space is tight. Forward Sealing Forward sealing faucets are absolutely the way to go when it comes to beer taps. Old legacy taps still exist in the industry that are simply poorly designed. The issue with rear sealing faucets is that beer dries up on the internal piston. Aside from being unsanitary, as more and more beer dries up in these components the faucet can almost glue completely shut causing damaged seals or broken handles (this is particularly the case if it's left for some time to dry out with beer inside). These older legacy designs still exist probably due to poor education. The forward sealing designs do not have this problem and the tap drains out completely with no beer drying up on the mechanical moving parts in the same way. This makes the tap more sanitary and reduces maintenance. In many instances the price is similar so there is no reason to use a poorly designed rear sealing faucet. All NukaTap faucets are forward sealing. Laminar Flow Just like the NukaTap SS and NukaTap FC, the NukaTap Mini has been designed with laminar flow in mind. Laminar flow is critical for a beer tap as it means you will pour the beer with minimal foaming and a substantial reduction in wastage. Think about how many times a beer faucet opens and closes in its lifetime. 1,000 or maybe 10,000 times? Laminar flow saves wasted beer in excessive foam and the better laminar flow easily pays for itself in a reduction in lost beer. To use poorer designed faucets is essentially flushing money down the sink. Extensive modeling has been done on the NukaTap design to improve laminar flow. Integrated Seals That Are Indestructible and More Sanitary Unlike other designs, the NukaTap Mini body is made from Polyketone (POK) making it strong, robust, and able to be autoclaved. The seals are also over-molded from Santoprene® making them hard wearing so they will literally last for the lifetime of the tap without the need for replacement.

Wine Making
Use Delvozyme (Lysozyme, Lysovin) for controlling lactic acid bacteria growth in your wine. Isolated from egg whites, this enzyme will degrade the cell wall of gram positive bacteria, but will not affect yeast or gram negative bacteria such as Acetobacter. Delvozyme can be used for both Red and White Wine Malo Fermentation.
Dosage:
To Delay Malolactic Fermentation: Red Wine - add to grapes at 100 - 200 ppm, or 0.38 - 0.76 grams per gallon. White Wine - Add to must at 200 - 300 ppm, or 0.76 - 1.14 grams per gallon.
To Block Malolactic Fermentation: White Wine - Add to must or wine at 300 - 500 ppm, or 1.14 - 1.90 grams per gallon.
Stabilizing wine after MLF is complete: Add to barrel during storage at 250 - 500 ppm, or 0.95 - 1.90 grams per gallon.
When blending partial and complete MLF wines: Add immeditatley after blending at 300 - 500 ppm, or 1.14 - 1.90 grams per gallon, to reduce the risk of further malolactic fermentation (MLF). Within several days any lactic should expire.
For sluggish or stuck yeast fermentation: Red Wine - Add at 150 - 400 ppm, or 0.57 - 1.52 grams per gallon. White Wine - add at 300 - 500 ppm, or 1.14 - 1.90 grams per gallon.
Directions for use: You can make a 10% solution of Delvozyme in water (100 grams per liter of water). However we find the easiest method is to add the desired dry weight of Lysovin in 5x its weight of warm(tepid) water. Mix for one minute, allow this mixture to stand for 45 minutes and add to must, juice or wine while mixing well. Allow 24 - 48 hours for reaction to complete.
**Note: 3tsp Delvozyme = 5g
Beer Making
Delvozyme can be used in beer making as well. Use either in the starter (recommended if you make starters) or when pitching (adding) the yeast to the wort, do not use over 140 F. Recommended dosages is 1 tsp per 5 gallons of wort. According to studies it has no effect on flavor or clarity.
Storage: Should be stored at room temperatures in a dry environment, can be stored up to 5 years.
Autolyzing, quick release of polysaccarides such as mannoproteins Top choice for sur lie aging Ability to ferment cold for clean flavor with emphasis on mouthfeel and toastiness of sur lie aging When fermented warmer exoctic tropical flavors shine Frequently used to make luscious Chardonnays and similar white wines Luscious Chardonnays with creamy mouthfeel and deep complexity... if that is your end point, LUSCIOUS is your starting point. LUSCIOUS can be fermented at different temps depending on your style preference. Ferment it cooler, it can handle it, and put the emphasis on the creaminess and the toasted champagne-like complexity of sur lie ageing. Or crank it up a bit warmer and add in some more tropical notes, your choice. However the magic of LUSCIOUS really happens after fermentation when this yeast goes naturally goes nuclear, implodes and breaks open its cell walls, during a process called autolysis. Polysaccharides such as mannoproteins are released into the wine... and man, it's all about those mannoproteins creating that rich, creamy mouthfeel that so many Chardonnay drinkers seek out. The silky richness is emphasized even futher by sur lie aging, aging on clean lees for a period of time, in either tank or barrel. Being a low producer of SO2 it is naturally great candiate for later malo-lactic fermentations. Now that we have painted a picture try putting this marketing wizardry on your next label "The 10-40w viscosity of this wine is due to it being loaded with mannoproteins from the guts of exploded yeast cells". Maybe leave us out of the wine marketing department but we do know a winning yeast when we taste it. #1 for this style of Chardonnay but also a top choice for Viognier and other whites. Optimal Fermentation Temp: 55–68°F Start Time: Average Alcohol Tolerance: 14%+ Nitrogen Demand: Average YAN Requirement @ 23 Brix: 245 ppm Production of volatile acidity: Average Production of SO2: Low Cap/Foaming: Low Ease to Ferment with MLF: Good Lees Aging: Best Choice Proper yeast hydration helps ensure a healthy fermentation. For every gram of yeast, mix .25 g of FermStart yeast nutrient with 25 ml of sterilized tap water between 104–106°F/40–41°C. When water reaches 104°F/40°C, sprinkle yeast into water and stir gently. Allow the slurry to stand undisturbed for 15 minutes and then stir again. For every gram of yeast used add 25 ml of clean must to the yeast slurry and let stand 15–20 minutes. If necessary, use additional must to adjust yeast slurry to within 18°F of must temp before pitching. For a complete nutrient schedule sufficient for most fermentations, add 1.5 g of FermFed DAP Free per gallon of must at the first sign of fermentation and 1 g of FermFed per gallon of must after 1/3 sugar depletion.

Enoferm Beta can positively contribute to the sensory profile of the wine, by enhancing spicy and red fruit aromas Delected due to it's good performance under difficult wine conditions and positive sensory contribution Able to induce MLF at temperatures as low as 55°F Lallemand Oenology specializes in the development, production, and marketing of top-grade yeast and bacteria Enoferm Beta is a single strain of Oenococcus oeni (ex Leuconostoc oenos), isolated from a Cabernet Sauvignon wine from Abbruzzi. It was selected due to it's good performance under difficult wine conditions, positive sensory contribution, and security from its low use of sugars and very low volatile acid as well as biogenic amines production. In winery trials, Enoferm Beta was able to induce MLF at temperatures as low as 55°F. Most direct inoculum preparations have difficulty completing MLF unless temperatures > 64°F, while Enoferm Beta can be used in wines with temperatures > 57°F. For more information about ML Bacteria, please see MoreWine!'s Guide to Malolactic Fermentation. 2.5 g: good for 66 gallons 25 g: good for 660 gallons Alcohol tolerance: <15% v/v. SO2 tolerance: <60 ppm pH: >3.2 Temperature: >57°F Different lactic acid bacteria strains do have an impact on the flavor profile of wine, Enoferm Beta can positively contribute to the sensory profile of the wine, by enhancing spicy and red fruit aromas, low diacetyl production, better structure and body,and less astringency and bitterness. You can't store malolactic bacteria once the package has been opened. Note: Malolactic bacteria added during the ferment will compete with the yeast for nutrients and are atagonistic to yeast, potentially resulting in higher VA levels. The best time to add an ML culture is after racking off the gross lees.

This Scottzyme works best in conjunction with PEC5L.
