Largely used in the United States of America. It's an all-purpose and vigorous, a moderately foaming and sulfite-tolerant strain useful in producing white and red wines. Extremely good fermenter with very high alcohol tolerance. Recommended for treating stuck fermentations. Very nice option for Muscat and Viognier. INCLUDES: 5 Packs (5 g sachets) of Red Star Premier Blanc wine yeast. Manufactured by Fermentis (Lesaffre) and Distributed by CAPYBARA Distributors Inc. Ingredients Saccharomyces cerevisiae Directions Rehydrate for 20-25 minutes in water or a mix of one-third must and two-thirds water, using ten times the strain's weight. The mixture should be 38-40°C (100-104°F). Stir for 20 minutes. Gradually add the culture media to three times the must's weight, then wait 10 minutes. Add this mix to the fermentation tank, ensuring the temperature difference is no more than 10°C, ideally 5°C. ## Features - Particularly strong yeast strain with a very high alcohol tolerance (18% vol.), Low volatile acidity and acetaldehyde production, good resistance to low temperature fermentation 10-30°C (50-86°F). Low nutrient requirements (nitrogen and fatty acids). - This yeast strain confers body and roundness thanks to its high glycerol production and promotes the development of fresh and clean aromas. Allows obtaining pure and pleasant aromas thanks to a straight fermentation. Excellent to produce white thermo regulated and sparkling wines processed by traditional or Charmat methods. - WINE STYLES: Ideal for wines produced in big quantity. Production of young wines. Production of high alcohol white and red wines, in which the winemaker wants to keep freshness and varietal aromas while controlling fermentation temperature. Pasteur Champagne is one of the best strains to avoid sluggish fermentation and to restart stuck ones with remaining residual sugars thanks to its ability to assimilate fructose and to resist to alcohol. - DOSAGE: 5g Sachet Makes 20 - 23L; ALCOHOL TOLERANCE: Up to 18%; FERMENTATION TEMPERATURE RANGE: 10-30°C (50-86°F) - USAGE: Rehydrate for 20-25 minutes in water or a mix of one-third must and two-thirds water, using ten times the strain's weight.
