safale 04
I have used this yeast to make several batches of carbonated mead at varying strengths ( between 5 and 10 percent alc.)with great results. Even at the high temps in Hawaii, 80 F. It performed well.
Very consistant fementation
You know exactly what is going to happen. Pitch the yeast, I sprinkle into wort according to instructions, and 8-24 hours you have fermentation. It can be very vigorous. BoTtle conditioning can take a little longer with this one though, so be patient. Great tasting in the end.
I even use it for lagers
Very clean yeast! I have made several award winning lagers using this yeast. (fermented at low ale temps) Universal clean, a yeast for almost any style.
Excellent in dark beers!
I've used this yeast in a variety of dark beers with great success. I would recommend this product.
Great Yeast, easy to use
I just started using dry yeast and doubt I will ever use anything else. It is so easy to store and use plus you can't beat the price. I used to reclaim yeast and will never do that again.
