DistilaMax GW Dry Ale Yeast Brick (500 g)

DistilaMax GW is a highly concentrated active dry distiller's yeast developed specifically for grain whisky production from wheat- and corn-based wort. Built for modern grain operations, it kicks off quickly with a short lag phase and drives strong, dependable fermentation across a wide range of operating conditions. The result is a clean, well-defined flavour profile that is well-suited to American whiskey-style spirits and integrates smoothly into blends or stands on its own after maturation.

These yeast bricks are for brewing large batches at one time, or pinching off quantities for smaller volumes of brew. Once opened if you are not using the entire brick it should be placed in a bag, vacuum sealed and returned to a cool, dry, storage area below 15°C, where it remains stable for up to 36 months. Doing this will help to preserve the yeasts fermenting ability and reduce the risk of contamination of the remaining yeast.
