Lalvin EC-1118 Yeast is favored for its reliable, quick fermentation and low foam production. It's also quite flexible, thriving in cool or warm fermentation temperatures: 50 - 86°F!
EC1118 is a neutral yeast strain that contributes very little flavor, aroma or esters to the finished product. It flocculates well, meaning the yeast sediments & settles nicely, leaving seltzer, cider or wine clearer after fermentation is complete.
Each packet of Lalvin EC1118 contains 5g of yeast, which will treat a 5 gallon batch. If fermenting a 1 gallon batch use only 1/4 of the packet. This active dry yeast strain does not require hydration or a yeast starter to begin fermentation.
