Diamond Lager Yeast, 11 g

Diamond Lager Yeast is a strain of yeast commonly used in beer brewing to produce lagers, a type of beer known for its clean, crisp taste and smooth finish.

Key Features of Diamond Lager Yeast:

1. Lager Characteristics: It is specifically formulated for bottom-fermentation, a hallmark of lager brewing, where the yeast settles at the bottom of the fermenter.
2. Clean Fermentation: Produces minimal off-flavors, allowing the malt and hops to shine in the beer's flavor profile.
3. Cold Fermentation: Performs best at lower temperatures (typically between 10°C and 15°C or 50°F to 59°F), ideal for traditional lager brewing.
4. Versatility: Suitable for a wide variety of lager styles, including Pilsners, Helles, Bocks, and Märzens.
5. Ease of Use: Often sold in a dry form, making it convenient for both professional brewers and homebrewers to handle and store.

Benefits in Brewing:

• Consistency: Produces reliable results with uniform flavor profiles across batches.
• Ease of Fermentation: High attenuation and flocculation rates lead to a clean, well-clarified beer.
• Resilience: Typically, these yeast strains are robust and can withstand variations in brewing conditions better than some liquid yeast options.
