Pinnacle Bottle Conditioning gist 500 g

Pinnacle Bottle Conditioner is a unique Saccharomyces cerevisiae selected for his ability to perform bottle and cask conditioning.

Use recommendations

• Use above 10% will require additional optimization.
• Recommended rehydration for 30 minutes in 30°C sterile water.

Benefits

• Low maltotriose, low floc formation.
• Non-phenolic, low DMS.
• Fast performing.
