Alcotec Distiller’s Rum Turbo Yeast
73g sachets, suitable for 25 litre fermentations.
Contains both Turbo Yeast, Yeast Nutrient, Amylase Enzyme and Vitamins.
For grain or molasses based recipes, we have added a GA (glucoamylase) enzyme which breaks down dextrins which are leftovers from the raw materials after fermentation (grain, rice etc.).
For grain based recipes, you also need to pre-treat the wash with Alcotec Alpha Amylase Enzyme (see our Shop sold separately).
Contains complete nutrition for rapid fermentation.
Producing full, rich fruity aromatics, it also includes glucoamylase enzyme to break down and convert starch and carbs into sugars for optimum yield.
NOTE: Alcotec Distiller’s Yeasts are designed for use when making spirit in the more traditional way, ie from grain.
A general purpose yeast suitable for country wines . Standard form of yeast used for brewing, can be used for beer or wine but more suited to beer and low alcohol wines.
Young’s Re-start Wine Yeast is the perfect strain for completing fermentations that are sluggish or have completely stopped. This yeast has the capabilities to kick start and dominate the fermentation, fermenting to dryness up to a possible 18% ABV. This innovative, fermentation-friendly yeast will start work quickly and produce low foam overcoming difficult fermentation conditions and delivering a consistently clean and fresh tasting wine. This strong, forceful strain is suitable for use with any red, white or rose wine it is easily handled and confers very neutral flavour and aroma characteristics. Due to it’s rapid re-activation properties it will avoid negative wine influencers such as excessive SO production, colour oxidation and flavour loss commonly associated with sluggish fermentations.
Technical Information
Gluten Free
Alcohol tolerance: 18% v/v
SO tolerance: High
Foaming: Low
Low production of fusel oils
Ideal for crisp, fresh dry white/blush and all sparkling wines. Also the best strain for high alcohol tolerance. CL23 produces very low levels of fusel oils and other congener compounds during fermentation and so does not contribute much to wine flavour or aroma and can therefore be considered to be a particularly neutral / clean fermenter.
However CL23 does contribute significantly to the wines structure and ferments out sugars completely allowing for the driest of wines to be made. CL23 is noted for its robustness, being able to ferment to 18% ABV. Ethanol, tolerate high free SO2 and high levels of other stress factors such as organic acids, incorrect temperature and pH making CL23 the strain of choice for high alcohol wines or where uncertain recipes are employed and fermentation reliability is a key factor or where low temperature fermentation down to 80ºC (46ºF) is required.
