    Great info! I've been hesitant to try over my usual 34/70, but your analysis has sparked my interest. think I will try on my next German Pils. Thank you.

      No problem, that sounds great. If you're interested to see how my German pils came out with this yeast I have a video on it here: ruclips.net/video/S1egDimHc2Y/видео.htmlsi=tU3Rjwi3VlTakUL8. I'll be interested to know your opinion and how it compares to 34/70.

    I've been thinking of doing a more hoppy lager and I do remember liking Hurlimann, which was a Swiss lager. So I think I should definitely give it a try. For the past 12 months I've been using Nova lager and been very happy with the results under pressure.

    • @KegThat

      This yeast is originally from the Hurlimann brewery so you'd definitely be using the right yeast! Nova is one on my list but haven't got round to trying yet, I've heard some good things about it.

    I used this yeast in an American Light Lager, and got an honourable mention at Lager Than Life, as well as winning a lager comp at my local club. A recipe I'll be sure to do again.
    Definitely use 2 packs when fermenting cold on a 20L+ batch

      Did you find it to be estery when young? I'm wondering if underpitching leads to the esters described in the video

    I used this in my last Czech pilsner, came out very clean and dry with some nice doughy malt in the background.

      Sounds like a really decent beer. This yeast does promote malt flavours really well. Do you brew a lot of lagers? If so what's been your favourite yeast so far?

    I've toyed with using this for a while, but I usually just fall back to 34/70. I am planning a rebrew of the Vienna Lager I just kicked, which I used Wyeast Munich Lager for, so maybe I'll give it a whirl.

    • @KegThat
      @KegThat  9 месяцев назад

      I think this would be great for a Vienna lager as it really makes the malts shine through. I really enjoyed my Vienna lager with this. If you want more of a traditional Vienna it would definitely need lagering though.

    I have one ine the cooler. Got to give it a try. I'll brew a clone of a pilnser i have on tap to compare the yeast better.

      I'd be really interested to hear your thoughts on this compared to the original strain. I think I might do a split batch soon, this yeast vs w-34/70.

    Do you recommend a temp for fermentation with this strain ?

    • @KegThat
      @KegThat  9 месяцев назад +3

      I fermented my pils at 12C which came out great. I've fermented it under pressure at 18-20C and it still throws out quite a lot of esters, despite the pressure ferment. I guess it depends what you're after, I think for a traditional lager 12-14C would be best.

    Sounds like it could be good for a New Zealand Pilsner.

    • @KegThat
      @KegThat  9 месяцев назад

      Yeah definitely! I want to brew a hoppy pils with this and was considering more of a NZ pils.

    Very similar to Angel Yeast BF16

      I've not heard of this yeast before but just looked it up. I wonder if it's the same yeast (the way US05 and WLP001 are the same yeast) just produced by different labs?
