Very good product for beginners.
Being it is an aggressive yeast it produces a slight metallic taste in the distilled product. The results are phenomenal. Very good product for beginners. Very hard to accidentally kill this yeast in the fermenting process.

Excellent fermentation
Excellent for fermentation, after 10 days 18% ABV

It activated
3 minutes to activate (1 to 1 ratio) in warmed(109F) water (filtered), 10 minutes to activate in room temperature water (filtered). Room temp tap (not filtered) slow to activate (20 minutes in), it has the aroma of digestion, no striking visual clues though.... Use warm filtered water to test before you botch a brew..... It works (preliminary), I will update with shelf life and brew results. 06 08 2026

As advertised with a caveat
I was concerned about this when I ordered it based on all the reviews that said the yeast was dead. I received it and nope, it works and is yielding as expected. Thanks!Update... ok, so I purchased these 6 mos ago, opened one bag to use. Both were double sealed in zip locks and in a fridge at 40°. Today, went to use and opened bag was very inactive. There was some activity, but nothing like originally. I researched and found after opening, it can go bad in 4 - 6 mos. I love the yeast, but I would recommend only buying 1 bag at a time, or smaller bags for the home user. The photo is the old bag to the left after an hour of trying to get it active, the right is 20 minutes of the new bag.

What Was I Thinking?
I couldn’t use that much before it expires. Even if I freeze it I’d (after three years) still have some left. Good deal if all of your baking and brewing require that much.
