EC-1118 Saccharomyces bayanus 3 (5 g. Pouchs)

This stuff will chew through just about anything but be careful as it can strip away flavor too. My favorite strain to use for high ABV mead.

Just what I needed happy I found it.

I use this for distilling and I have never got a dead batch. It kicks off in about an hour and has a very active fermentation.

Works fantastic.... Thank you so much for helping me be successful with my first attempt at wine making...

Great product. Exactly as stated and super fast shipping.

awesome for making wine great fermentation multiple fruits juices and mead !

To make mead, honey wine.

Made honey mead. Bubbled for 4-5 weeks with raisins for nutrition

No dislikes, only likes. Very good product, works very well. And fast shipping.

Ok

Really strong and effective yeast. Doesn't need any yeast nutrients from my experience and brews really strong as long as you've got enough sugar and time. Theres no aftertastes you would get from using any ordinary bread yeast it produced a really clean tasting wine. The yeast itself is in foil coated sachets which make it easy to close up after one use as it holds shape which makes it functional. Its a great value for money as one sachet can make you over a galon of product, and its sachet form makes it easy to use as long as your pouring it down a big opening

EC-1118 is one of the most in-demand wine yeasts for good reason. It has a high ABV tolerance (intended for champagnes but usable in all sorts of brews), its fermentation is usually very quick and aggressive, and I've found it to be quite resilient to mistakes that I've made as well. As always with these 5g bags, if you're making a smaller batch of a gallon/5 litres or less, you really don't need the entire packet. You can just use about half of it or less even and tape up the bag.

Fast and reliable
