Details

Select reliable, high-quality ingredients to use in your brewing operation like this Angel WA18 wheat ale brewing yeast. This classic German-style wheat beer yeast is suitable for brewing top-fermented wheat beers like weizens and witbiers. It yields brews with a bright body and notes of banana, clove, and spice. This commercially produced yeast yields consistent, dependable results, allowing you to brew your signature recipes time and time again with confidence. This yeast is POF phenotype positive, diastaticus negative, and has a low flocculation rate to produce hazy wheat beers. It has an apparent attenuation of 73-85% and an alcohol tolerance of 10% ABV.

This yeast is recommended to be used at a dosage of 0.5-1 grams per liter (50-100 grams per hectoliter); for higher gravity or more robust fermentations, increase the dosage to 1-3 grams per liter. It has a fermentation range of 18-22 degrees Celsius. Direct pitching is possible with this yeast, though rehydration is recommended for high-gravity fermentation or when yeast health is critical. To use, rehydrate your desired amount of yeast in 10 times its weight of clean boiled water heated to 25-30 degrees Celsius in a sterile container. Ensure all the yeast is in contact with the water, then allow to rehydrate for 15-30 minutes, ensuring rehydration does not exceed 30 minutes. Pitch the rehydrated yeast into a fermentation vessel with your wort. The temperature difference between the wort and the rehydrated yeast should never exceed 10 degrees Celsius. Any unused yeast should be resealed in its original packaging and stored in a cool, dry place.
