{"product_id":"safteq-blue-500g","title":"Fermentis SafTeq Dry Tequila Yeast Brick [BLUE] (500 g)","description":"This Fermentis SafTeq Blue is a specialty yeast specifically selected by Fermentis and CIATEJ to ferment blue agave (tequilana weber variety) juices for tequila production, with or without the addition of other sugar sources. It performs exceptionally well thanks to its tolerance for furfural and other toxins typically found in agave juices, along with high resistance to osmotic pressure, alcohol, and elevated fermentation temperatures that make it ideal for high gravity conditions. It exhibits faster fermentation kinetics than common tequila yeasts, shortening fermentation times without compromising results, and is equally suitable for mezcal production.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor best results it should be stored below 10°C (50°F) in dry conditions, where it remains stable until the best before date printed on the packaging. 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 at 4°C (59°F), where it remains stable for up to 7 days. Doing this will help to preserve the yeasts fermenting ability and reduce the risk of contamination of the remaining yeast.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eDetails:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpecifically selected for tequila and mezcal production\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeveloped by Fermentis and CIATEJ for blue agave (Tequilana weber) juices\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh tolerance to toxins such as furfural commonly present in agave juices\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrong resistance to osmotic pressure, alcohol and elevated temperatures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFaster fermentation kinetics than common tequila yeasts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecommended dosage of 25-50g\/100L\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStable when stored below 10°C (50°F) in dry conditions when unopened\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemains stable for up to 7 days after being opened when stored at 4°C (59°F)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemains stable for up to 24 months from production date\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold in 500g brick for easy storage and better shelf life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eYeast Statistics:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eOptimum Fermentation Temperature: \u003c\/span\u003e25 - 35°C (77 - 95°F)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eAlcohol Tolerance: \u003c\/span\u003eVery High\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eStorage Temperature: \u003c\/span\u003e10°C (50°F)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eStorage Temperature (Opened): \u003c\/span\u003e4°C (59°F)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Fermentis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42520389779541,"sku":"safteq-blue-500g","price":128.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2045\/5257\/files\/63841-1.jpg?v=1779395069","url":"https:\/\/www.canuckhomebrewsupply.com\/products\/safteq-blue-500g","provider":" Canuck Homebrew Supply, Canada","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
