The Saison #2 StrainFrom a traditional farmhouse Saison. Creates the fruity/spicy aroma traditional to the style. Warmer fermentation temps result in more intense flavor. Produces a tartness not found in most of our yeast and a slightly sweeter beer than GY018 (Saison #1).With 200 Billion Yeast Cells per pack Giga Yeast features nearly double the cell count of other liquid yeast producers. This equals faster starts better flavors and more insurance that your beer is going to turn out well. Double the yeast for just a little more money. Smart brewing.More On Cell Count200 Billion cells per pouch means that with one pounch you can attain the gold standard of pitch count of .75 million yeast cells for every milliters of wort for every degree plato for nearly any beer you will make. 200 billion yeast cells is also fantastic if you are making 5 gallons of high gravity beer and dont have time to make a starter. Saves money if you are making 10 gallons and only want to buy one yeast. Getting twice as many cells per pack versus the other brands is also a great idea for mail order shipment which can be a little tough on liquid yeast.Attenuation Medium Gravity*:79% 83%Attenuation High Gravity*: 44% 47% (5.5% 6.0% ABV)Temperature Range: 64F 80FFlocculation:LowStyle Uses:SaisonBelgian AleFarmhouse AleBiere De Garde* Attenuation was measured after 8 days with Ale yeast at 70F and Lager yeast at 50F. Medium Gravity is 14 16Plato. High Gravity is 23- 25Plato. The working temperature range represents the range at which fermentation for a given strain produces a typical attenuation- not necessarily the ideal temperature for your particular beer style. As a rule of thumb start ale yeast fermentation at 68 72F and then lower or raise temp as desired. Lager Yeast are typically fermented at 45 58F. If desired Lager Yeast can be given a hot start at 65-68F and then lowered to the primary temperature after active fermentation begins (10-20hrs).
