W 34/70 - Original Bottom Fermenting Pure Yeast Strain for Beer
A tube is enough for a „Starter“ with 5 litres well-aerated beer Wort. After 24-48 hours the Starter can be used for the fermentation of 30 litres Wort. Please store cool (2 °C – 10 °C) and remove from the refrigerator a few hours before usage. Shake well, carefully open and add the content in the Wort. The best results can be reached by temperatures between 10 °C to 14 °C. If the original extract content is higher (over 12 °P) it is recommended to reduce the Wort content or increase the volume of the Starter to the needed volume. The cropped yeast can be used several times. The quality standards are limited to the detection of the obligatory beer spoiling microorganisms.

Special attention has been invested upon the criteria such as the dependency of the fermentation speed, fermentation by products, Diacetyle decomposition and directed at the creation of aromas. A large spectrum has been established due to the up keeping of the proven characteristics of the pure cultivated strains. Especially developed cultural media’s and the cultivation conditions have prevented any degeneration i.e. mutation of the yeast strains as proven in the normal laboratory storage.
