SafBrew LA-01 - The Ultimate Yeast for Low & Non-Alcoholic Beers
• Exceptional Quality: Crafted with Lesaffre’s advanced yeast production technology.
• Versatile Usage: Works great in cold and no - rehydration conditions, preserving yeast viability and performance.
• Subtle Aroma Profile: Elevates the character of low and non - alcoholic beers without overwhelming flavors.
SafBrew LA-01, a specially selected strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. chevalieri, is perfect for making low and non - alcoholic beverages (<0.5% ABV). It doesn't assimilate maltose or maltotriose but ferments simple sugars like glucose, fructose, and sucrose efficiently. With its subtle aroma profile and medium sedimentation, it forms a fine, powdery haze when resuspended for a clear and well - controlled final product.
️ Dosage & Fermentation Temperature:
- Dosage: 50 to 80 g/hl
- Ideal Temperature Range: 10–25°C (50–77°F)
⚠️ Important Considerations:
- As residual fermentable sugars will remain post - fermentation, it is mandatory to pasteurize the beer after packaging (80 to 120 PU) to prevent refermentation.
- Not suitable for cropping and repitching.
Usage Instructions:
1. Direct Pitching:
- How: Sprinkle the yeast directly onto the wort surface at or above fermentation temperature. Ensure even coverage to prevent clumping.
- Tip: For best results, add yeast during the first part of the vessel filling process, allowing hydration at higher temperatures before cooling to fermentation temperature.
2. With Prior Rehydration:
- How: Sprinkle the yeast in a minimum of 10 times its weight of sterile water or boiled and hopped wort at 25–29°C (77–84°F).
- Rest: Let sit for 15–30 minutes, stir gently, then pitch into the fermentation vessel.
Storage Guidelines:
- Short - term (<6 months): Store below 24°C (75°F).
- Long - term (>6 months): Store below 15°C (59°F).
- After Opening: Seal tightly and store at 4°C (39°F). Use within 7 days.
- Note: Avoid using soft or damaged sachets.
️ Shelf Life:
- 36 months from production date. Refer to the best before date on the sachet.
