Description

CELLARSCIENCE - GERMAN WEIHENSTEPHAN LAGER YEAST 12gm.

  • The classic lager strain from Weihenstephan Germany that has been used for generations to produce clean, balanced lagers from pilsners to doppelbocks.
  • Like all CellarScience yeast, GERMAN is eligible for direct pitch straight into your wort.
  • CellarScience provides 12g of yeast per sachet, which is up to 9% more than any other brand of dry yeast.
  • Every batch of yeast is PCR tested to ensure quality.
  • GERMAN has been selling to pro breweries for awhile but was just recently packaged down to sachets for homebrewers.

Dosage:

  • Two sachets are enough to treat a Single 19–23L batch.
  • When calculating for larger batches, use at a rate of 0.66-1.06g per Liter of wort.
  • We recommend rounding up by one full sachet rather than measuring out the yeast exactly.
  • [70-100g per 100L]

Direct Pitch or Rehydrate:

  • GERMAN yeast is designed to be sprinkled directly onto the surface of your wort with no oxygenation required in the initial fermentation.
  • Our aerobic growth process makes this possible by creating dry yeast with high viability and high sterol levels.
  • GERMAN yeast is pre-loaded with essential nutrients to ensure a successful, complete fermentation.
  • While not required, some brewers prefer to rehydrate yeast. To hydrate yeast, first, sanitize the yeast brick and scissors.
  • Use 10 grams of sterilized tap water between 85-95°F (29-35°C) mixed with 0.25 grams of FermStart per gram of yeast.
  • Sprinkle yeast on the water. Allow the slurry to stand undisturbed for 20 minutes, then swirl.
  • Use small amounts of wort to adjust to within 10°F (6°C) of wort temperature before pitching. 
  • Ferment between 50-59°F (10-15°C).


  • Optimum Fermentation Temp: 50-59°F (10-15°C).
  • Flocculation: High
  • Alcohol Tolerance: 9-10% ABV (WY2124 9%)
  • Attenuation: 78-85%
  • International Code: DY104
  • Similar Strains: WLP830, WY2124, W-34/70
  • Gluten-free

CellarScience Yeast:

  • For years liquid yeast has been sold as the higher quality option but times are changing.
  • Yes, 20 years ago dry yeast was made by bread yeast producers and the quality was not as good as liquid yeast.
  • CellarScience is helping to flip that script with a full lineup of high-quality dry yeasts.
  • Cell count and viability is usually higher than commercial liquid yeast pitches, which vary from pouch to pouch and don't ship well.
  • CellarScience yeast can be pitched directly in most batches of wort, offering significant time savings.
  • Yeast that is quick and easy to use, high quality, and available at a reasonable cost adds up to a tremendous value.
  • Quality yeast that doesn't "break the bank".
