Joenos Champagne/Sparkling Wine Pure Culture Yeast, 5 g for 10-50 l

This active pure culture yeast is made for sparkling wine. It is suitable for the second fermentation, in which the carbonation is created from a still base wine through renewed fermentation. A clean yeast strain is important here so that the fermentation runs in a controlled way in the bottle or in the tank.

A 5 g sachet is enough for 10 to 50 litres. Stir the yeast into lukewarm water (around 30-35 °C), let it swell and add it to the base wine. The exact dosage and the procedure for bottle fermentation are on the packaging.
