Alcotec Turnbo Yeast 48
Alcotec Vodka Star Yeast 66g

Alcotec Vodka Star Yeast 66g

£1.99

Alcotec VodkaStar turbo yeast contains a high purity yeast strain, chosen for its ability to create very clean and neutral alcohol from a sugar/water wash. It will ferment to 14% in 5-6 days. Note that for making vodka from grains, you also need enzymes to break down starch components into fermentable sugars. If you use grains, rice or similar in the recipe – use Alcotec Vodka Turbo with GA instead and you may need to pre-treat the wash with Alpha Amylase enzyme. Temperature range is 20-25°C for maximum purity but it works up to 35 °C

    Saccharomyces Cerevisiae – Ideal for full bodied, full flavoured dry and sweet white wines.

    BV7 will both preserve and enhance the grape variety and terroir, promoting excellent flavour complexity, good wine structure and balance but especially full aromatic flavour. To appreciate the impact of BV7, split a chardonnay must, fermenting half with CL23 and the remainder with BV7 – you will be amazed at the impact of the yeast strain upon fruit concentration.

    BV7 produces a wide range of low level beneficial congeners such as higher alcohols and esters and high glycerol promoting full body and structure to the wine and contributing significantly to mouth-feel, wine texture and palate intensity.

    Avoid fermenting above 13% abv. ethanol, BV7 is not particularly ethanol tolerant. Acceptable temperature range is 15 to 30ºC (59 -86ºF) but ferment below 22ºC (72ºF) for maximum flavour development.

    Acid reducing strain excellent for fruity white & blush country wines especially where residual sugars are desired. MA33 has the ability to metabolize between 30 and 35% of malic acid making this strain the perfect choice for country fruits which are naturally high in acid. Reducing malic acid will soften the wine and give a vin nouveau character for early consumption with a balanced palate.

    MA33 is also noted for its production of fruity esters and fusel oils conferring fresh fruity character to the wine. There is an increased chance of Malolactic fermentation by lactic acid bacteria following MA33 fermentation. MA33 is a killer-sensitive strain. It is a good fermenter between 18 and 27OC (64 -80OF), with a rapid onset to fermentation although can exhibit a slow late fermentation profile and may require aeration after 10 – 12 days. Will ferment up to 14% ABV. ethanol providing the pH is above 3.2
