This yeast produced an end product that had much higher alcohol content than I or my family was expecting, thats not to say that it was bad (the taste was nice actually) but it was surprisingly strong. I should also warn that in the few batched I have made I keep getting a syrupy taste despite trying different recipes, it may have to do with this yeast, who knows. Review: Ec1118 bulk - I like the bulk packaging and price. As long as it's quality and price stay good, this will probably be my go to yeast. I've only order this product 1nc so far. ## Features - EC-1118 is an All-Purpose Wine Yeast for Wine, Shine, Soda and Cider - High alcohol tolerance, up to 18% - Dependable with consistently strong fermentation characteristics - A popular choice because of its neutral flavor and favorable fermentation characteristics - The Original ‘PRISE DE MOUSSE’ ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01GWMTZSM | | Age Range Description | 18+ | | Best Sellers Rank | #98,956 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ( See Top 100 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ) #42 in Winemaking Yeasts & Cultures | | Brand | Lalvin | | Brand Name | Lalvin | | Container Type | Bag | | Cuisine | Western | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 104 Reviews | | Item Form | Powder | | Item Package Quantity | 1 | | Item Package Weight | 0.49 Kilograms | | Leavening Agent Type | Active Dry Yeast | | Manufacturer | Lallemand | | Number of Items | 1 | | Part Number | BRE-DYW54C | | Size | 17.63 Ounce (Pack of 1) | | Specialty | Vegan | | UPC | 705422906328 | | Unit Count | 17.63 Ounce | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Lalvin - **Item Form:** Powder - **Item Package Quantity:** 1 - **Number of Items:** 1 - **Unit Count:** 17.63 Ounce ## Images ![WINE YEAST EC-1118 500g BULK PACK FOR HIGH ALCOHOL FERMENTATIONS - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81VWS-QjaPL.jpg) ![WINE YEAST EC-1118 500g BULK PACK FOR HIGH ALCOHOL FERMENTATIONS - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81Fpxdk4ihL.jpg) ![WINE YEAST EC-1118 500g BULK PACK FOR HIGH ALCOHOL FERMENTATIONS - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/918leG5Pp6L.jpg) ![WINE YEAST EC-1118 500g BULK PACK FOR HIGH ALCOHOL FERMENTATIONS - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81jD3BzvPIL.jpg) ![WINE YEAST EC-1118 500g BULK PACK FOR HIGH ALCOHOL FERMENTATIONS - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81H0cx3Va0L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ POWERFUL *by A***R on February 12, 2025* Powerful results what else can I say?
