Classic 8 Turbo Yeast from Still Spirits is the best all rounder Turbo Yeast, performing excellently under most conditions.
Use with 8 kg of sugar for high ABV, or 6 kg of sugar for fast fermenting.
Classic 8 has been further improved with the inclusion of new mineral absorbents, further improving distillate quality.
We recommend you use Turbo Carbon as it will significantly improve the performance of Classic 8 Turbo.
