How to use Lalvin EC-1118 Champagne yeast
- Add 300g (10.6oz) of Go-Ferm Protect Evolution™ to 6L (1.5gal) of 40-43°C (104-110°F) clean, chlorine-free water. Stir until a homogenous suspension free of lumps is achieved.
- When the temperature of this suspension is between 35-40°C (95-104°F), sprinkle 250g (8.8oz) of yeast slowly and evenly onto the surface of the water, whilst gently stirring. Ensure any clumps are dispersed.
- Allow standing for 20 minutes before further gently mixing.
- Mix the rehydrated yeast with a little juice, gradually adjusting the yeast suspension temperature to within 5-10°C (9-18°F) of the juice/must temperature.
- Inoculate into the must.
Notes:
- Steps 1-5 should be completed within 30 minutes.
- It is best to limit the first juice/must volume addition to one-tenth of the yeast suspension volume and wait 10 minutes before the addition to juice.
- To minimize cold shock, ensure temperature changes are less than 10°C (18°F).
- It is recommended that juice / must be inoculated no lower than 18°C (64°F).
- It is recommended to use complex nutrition source such as Fermaid®
