Great to keep a few packets as back-ups or just to use as a less-expensive alternative to liquid cultures.

Sprinkle the yeast in a minimum of 10 times its weight of sterile water or wort (we suggest 4 oz) at 70°F to 77°F (21 to 25 °C). Do not stir. Leave to rest 15 to 30 minutes. Gently stir for 30 minutes, and pitch the resultant cream into the fermentation vessel. Attenuation: 74-82% Sedimentation Time: Fast Alcohol Tolerance: 9-11% ABV Optimum Fermentation Temp: 64-78°F
