GigaYeast Portland Hefe GY020 from the famous American Hefeweizen creates a delicious cloudy wheat beer with negligible amounts of Banana and clove flavor. Used to make a famous American Wheat Beer. Creates a clean tasting crisp brew with just a hint of banana and spice. Very low flocculation means a hazy beer true to the hefe style.
* Medium Gravity is 14˚ – 16˚Plato. High Gravity is 23˚- 25˚Plato. † The working temperature range represents the range at which fermentation for a given strain produces a typical attenuation- not necessarily the ideal temperature for your particular beer style. As a rule of thumb, start ale yeast fermentation at 68˚ – 70˚F and then lower or raise temp as desired. Lager Yeast are typically fermented at 45˚ – 58˚F. If desired, Lager Yeast can be given a “hot start” at 65-68˚F and then lowered to the primary temperature after active fermentation begins (10-20hrs). GigaYeast laboratory is still gathering data on many of our strains. Information provided here may change some in the future.
