Saccharomyces Cerevisiae – Ideally suited for rich, full bodied red wines with exceptional flavour complexity.
Noted for exceptional depth and flavour complexity, R56 exhibits complex aromatics during fermentation conferring an old world quality which one might only expect from natural flora multiple strain fermentations.
Unusually for complex aromatic strains, R56 still respects the varietal character of the fruit and confers good structure and balance. R56 is also a high glycerol producing strain.
R56 is a medium rate fermenter with optimal temperature between 22 to 30ºC (72 -86ºF) which will ferment to 13.5% abv. ethanol.

Alcotec 48 Carbon Turbo Yeast is an especially developed extra pure variant of Alcotec 48 – the worlds best selling turbo yeast.
As with Alcotec 48 itself, it is based around a “pure” yeast strain which is a temperature tolerant, high alcohol distillers strain and a very precisely composed nutrient.
But we didn’t stop there, we have added a mixture of high specification activated carbons to push the limits of purity and odour-less fermentation.
The precisely composed nutrition, containing its own nitrogen source, a pH regulator, trace minerals, vitamins and an antifoaming agent, it is the perfect yeast compound for creating a high alcohol wash up to 20% but it can also be used for extra fast fermentations to 14% alcohol.
