Kitzinger pure yeast dry for the fermentation of grape must, fruit mash, fruit must, fruit wine and fruit mash for the production of brandy.
current best before date: 11/23
This pure yeast is used in the following cases:
- in case of very cold fermentation material e.g. end of autumn
- when there is a high risk of infection by rot (acetic acid)
- if the fermentation material had to be strongly sulfurized
- when grape musts have been heavily pre-clarified and there is no time for yeast growth
- when a rapid fermentation is to be initiated and carried out
- when no special bouquet formation is required (a slower fermentation results in a better formation of secondary bouquet substances)
Alcohol tolerance up to 16% by volume
Kitzinger pure yeast Application:
Approximately 10-15g of dry yeast is required for 100L of fermentation material. 20-25g of dry yeast are added in:
- cool weather (temperatures between 5 to 10°C)
- stronger degumming of the must
- stronger sulfurization (because of the danger of vinegar sting)
- secondary fermentation
For distilling mashes about 20-25g per 100l are necessary. The required amount of dry yeast is stirred into about 10 times the amount of water (100g in 1l) at about 30°C and allowed to swell (rehydrate) for about 20-25 minutes. Afterwards, this thin yeast slurry must be stirred superficially into the fermenting material - close the fermenting container with the fermenting attachment.
