Distillers Yeast

Lalvin EC1118 is a fermentation workhorse, ideal for any application requiring strong performance, high alcohol tolerance, and minimal flavor interference Its reliability under stress makes it a staple in both home and commercial fermentations where consistency is critical Versatile, robust yeast for clean and complete fermentations Lalvin EC1118 is a highly reliable and neutral yeast strain, originally isolated from the Champagne region. Renowned for its strong fermentation kinetics and high alcohol tolerance, EC1118 is widely used in sparkling wine production, secondary fermentations, ciders, fruit wines, and distillation mashes. Its clean fermentation profile ensures the preservation of varietal and fruit character, making it a staple for winemakers seeking consistency and purity. Key Features: Alcohol Tolerance: Up to 18% v/v, suitable for high-alcohol fermentations. Fermentation Temperature Range: 10–30°C (50–86°F), allowing flexibility across various fermentation conditions. Killer Factor: Killer positive, inhibiting many wild and sensitive yeast strains, aiding in maintaining fermentation dominance. Nutrient Requirements: Low to moderate; benefits from complex nutrients in low-nitrogen musts or high-alcohol applications. Flocculation: Low to medium, resulting in compact lees and improved clarity. SO₂ Production: Low to moderate, minimizing the need for additional sulfur dioxide additions. H₂S Production: Low, reducing the risk of off-odors. Fermentation Profile & Flavor Contribution EC1118 is prized for its neutral sensory impact, producing very few esters or higher alcohols. This clean profile allows the varietal character, terroir expression, or adjunct flavors (in cider or fruit fermentations) to shine through. It is known to minimize the perception of residual sweetness due to its ability to ferment to dryness even under stressful conditions. While not typically chosen for aromatic complexity, EC1118 produces a subtle spectrum of fermentation-derived volatiles such as ethyl esters and low levels of isoamyl alcohol under certain conditions. It has low volatile acid production and is particularly good at suppressing undesirable wild microbes. Applications: Sparkling Wines & Traditional Method (Méthode Champenoise): Due to high pressure and alcohol tolerance. Stuck Fermentations: Excellent restart yeast thanks to its resilience and killer activity. Ciders: Clean fermenter that allows fruit expression and can handle cold temperatures. Fruit Wines: Neutral character supports delicate fruit aromas without masking them. Distillation Ferments: High attenuation and ethanol yield. Mead: Strong fermenter in low-nutrient environments when supplemented properly. Beer (Hybrid Styles): Occasionally used in brut-style beers or for attenuation of residual sugars in high-gravity ales. Flavor Profile: Neutral Base: Minimal sensory contribution, allowing primary ingredients to dominate. Enhanced Freshness: May enhance the perception of dryness and freshness. Clean Finish: Very low ester and fusel production, resulting in a crisp and reliable finish. Usage: Rehydration: Rehydrate in 10 times its weight of chlorine-free water at 35–40°C (95–104°F) for 15–20 minutes. Stir gently to avoid clumping. Pitch Rate: Use 0.2–0.4 grams per liter (1–1.5 grams per gallon) for optimal fermentation and flavor development. Nutrient Addition: Supplement with yeast nutrient to enhance fermentation kinetics and prevent sluggish behavior, especially in high-sugar or low-nitrogen musts. Fermentation Temperature: Maintain between 10°C and 30°C (50°F and 86°F) to optimize fermentation performance and preserve desired flavor profiles.

The ideal yeast for producing a very neutral, clean base for hard seltzers, canned cocktails, further distillation, etc.  Works with malt or sugar fermentations Includes nutrients and pH buffers to keep fermentation humming to finish  Able to handle high levels of ethanol and osmotic pressure Ferments clean up to 80°F ​Our motto is to Empower Your Creative Vision. Origin is a unique style of yeast used to create a neutral alcoholic base that acts as the Origin upon which you layer other flavors. Perfect for Hard Seltzers, Canned Cocktails, and whatever else you can dream up. Also great for neutral washes designed for distillation and tough to ferment honey-based mead fermentations. Works on both sugar, honey, and malt-based fermentations. The secret sauce is a very neutral, high alcohol tolerant yeast combined with nutrients and pH buffers. The non-urea-based nutrients help the yeast in simple sugar mediums naturally low in nutrients. pH buffers ensure a high enough pH to allow the yeast to run to completion in even the toughest of situations. The yeast strain used in Origin is a very low producer of H2S and fruity esters resulting in a clean final product. Origin stays clean at higher fermentation temperatures up to 80°F. Origin could technically be called a Turbo Yeast being packed with nutrients. However, we don't like that association as many turbo Yeasts are not selected and assembled for quality and flavor but rather price and speed. Turbo Yeasts also do not include pH buffers. Origin will work with all commonly used sugars, including sucrose, dextrose, and liquid invert sugar. When fermenting wort from malted barley, use our Brutzyme Glucoamylase Enzyme to break down α-1,4 and α-1,6 glycosidic linkages of starch, dextrins, and oligosaccharides for a drier, more fully attenuated final product. Pilot batches should always be performed to find the optimum final product for your further vision. Directions: Add 10 to 20 g per gal (2.5 to 5 g per liter) directly into your fermentation with no hydration required. Ferment between 65 to 80°F (18-27°C). We recommend starting with a dosage of 15 g per gal (4 g per liter) and adjusting as desired in future batches.

Removes over 90% of yeast, solids, and other compounds from your wash within 24 hours, resulting in a remarkably clear liquid ready for distillation. Prevents the release of off-flavors, smells, and impurities that occur when yeast cells are boiled, ensuring a cleaner and smoother final product. Simply add Turbo Clear directly to your wash – no complicated filtering or additional equipment required. Transform your alcohol quality. Turbo Clear is added directly into your wash and within 24 hours separates over 90% of the yeast cells, solids and other compounds from the wash so that you can siphon out your clear wash, leaving the sediment behind. If Turbo Clear is not used and yeast cells are added to your boiler, the cells will break open during the boiling process releasing off-flavors, smells, impurities absorbed by fermentation, clays and carbons back into the distillate. For the very best alcohol quality use Turbo clear in every wash and rack carefully before distillation. Mixing Instructions Part A: Once fermentation is complete, stir the wash vigorously to remove the gas. Once degassed, add the contents of Part A and stir well, then leave to stand for 1 hour.   Part B: After 1 hour, slowly pour Part B evenly over the top of the wash while stirring gently to help spread it evenly. Do not stir vigorously as this will disrupt the clearing process. Leave to clear for at least 24 hours. During this time Part B will drop down from the top, taking unwanted yeast and other compounds with it to the bottom. Ingredients / Allergens Ingredients: Water, silica solution, acid (malic acid), chitosan (crustaceans), preservative (sodium metabisulphite). Allergens included: Sulfites and crustaceans.
