* The typical analysis of Munich Classic active dry yeast:

Percent solids 93%-95%

Living yeast cells  5 x 109 per gram of dry yeast

Wild yeast < 1 per 106 yeast cells Bacteria < 1 per 106 yeast cells

* * Finished product is released to the market only after passing a rigorous series of tests.

Brewing Properties:

• Quick start and vigorous fermentation, which can be completed in 4 days above 17°C. • Medium to high attenuation.

• Fermentation rate, fermentation time and degree of attenuation are dependent upon inoculation density, yeast handling, fermentation temperature and nutritional quality of the wort.

• Munich Classic is a non flocculent strain. In classic open fermentation vessels, the yeast can be skimmed off the top. Some settling can be promoted by cooling and use of fining agents and isinglass.

• Aroma and flavor have balanced fruity esters and spicy phenol notes. Does not display malodours when properly handled. Munich Classic yeast has found widespread use in the production of Hefeweizen, Dunkelweizen and wheat wine.

• Munich Classic yeast is best used at traditional ale temperatures after rehydration in the recommended manner.
