Mauribrew™ Lager 497 Yeast

Mauribrew Lager 497 Yeast

Lager 497 is a bottom fermenting lager yeast that produces highly desirable flavour characteristics consistent with quality lager beer. While producing almost no yeast head during fermentation, it is a rapid fermenter with a low oxygen requirement, generally completing within 5 days. This strain has good settling properties, resulting in a green beer of good clarity.

TYPE
Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Bottom Fermenting Lager Brewing Yeast

RATE OF FERMENTATION
When temperatures are maintained above 15°C the fermentation of normal worts is complete within 5 days. When the temperature is below 15°C the rate of fermentation proceeds in a more controlled fashion and at a reduced rate. The strain has low oxygen requirements through fermentation.

INOCULATION RATE : 80-110g/hl
Increase inoculation rate below 12°C, up to 250 g/hl at 10°C.

TEMPERATURE RANGE
Desirable flavour characters result with this strain through the 10-16°C temperature range.

LAGERING
Final gravity loss may be achieved through lagering down to 10°C.

DEGREE OF ATTENUATION
Sweet wort OG 1040-1045 is fermented normally to low final gravity.

YEAST HEAD FORMATION
This lager strain forms no yeast head throughout fermentation.

FINAL CLARITY
This general brewing strain has very good natural settling properties and results in a green beer of good clarity and compacted yeast deposit
