Product Overview
WLP004 Irish Ale Yeast (PurePitch Next Generation)
This yeast is from one of the oldest stout-producing breweries in the world. It’s great for many beer styles but really shines in malty British styles such as stouts, porters and brown ales. Medium attenuation helps with a dry finish that promotes roasty notes. Esters help round out the overall flavor making a soft drinkable stout.
PurePitch® Next Generation combines the ease of the vial and the innovation of PurePitch®, offering a pouch with a cap and double the pitch at 7.5 million cells/ mL; a commercially recommended pitching rate allowing you to pitch like the pros. No need for starters!
Characteristics:
- Attenuation: Â 69% - 74%
- Flocculation: Â Medium to High
- Alcohol Tolerance: Â Medium - High (8 - 12%)
- Optimum Fermentation Temperature:  65°F - 68°F
