Belgian Saison Wyeast

WY3724

Species : Ale
Fermentation Temp Range (°F) : 70-95
Apparent Attenuation Range (%) : 76-80
Flocculation : Low
Alcohol Tolerance : 12%

Pitching/Fermentation : This strain is the classic farmhouse ale yeast. A traditional yeast that is spicy with complex aromatics, including bubble gum.

Notes : It is very tart and dry on the palate with a mild fruitiness. Expect a crisp, mildly acidic finish that will benefit from elevated fermentation temperatures. This strain is notorious for a rapid and vigorous start to fermentation, only to stick around 1.035 S.G. Fermentation will finish, given time and warm temperatures. Warm fermentation temperatures at least 90°F (32°C) or the use of a secondary strain can accelerate attenuation.

Best Styles : Saison

Want to make a Yeast Starter? Home brewers are always led to believe making a yeast starter is for the advanced brewer. This could not be further from the truth. If anything beginning brewers should start with yeast starters. When you think about it they are nothing more than a small extract brew. Show Me How To Make A Yeast Starter

Great for Saisons, but...

I bought this yeast to start a Belgian-style saison, and I must say that the resulting mouthfeel and taste (crisp and fruity, but not overly so). However, if you do not have a homebrew setup that allows for high temperature control (80+ degrees F), you could run into issues with attenuation (mine reached about 73%, while the range is supposed to be 76-80%). I still recommend buying this yeast for saisons if you have the right setup, but if not, I'd suggest the Wyeast 3711 French Saison (not quite as good as a flavor, but less of a risk).
