White
Labs Pitchable Yeast
White Labs takes pride in producing the best liquid yeast on the market. Each strain is carefully grown under sterile laboratory conditions to high cell counts, and concentrated into each vial.
Each vial of White Labs liquid yeast is designed to be used directly in 5 gallons, or "pitchable". Each vial is equivalent in cell count to a pint starter, or 30-60 billion cells. One vial will usually start fermentation in 5 gallons in 5-15 hours at 70°F. If a faster start is desired, or if initial gravity is over 1.070, we recommend a 1-2 pint starter be made.
Homebrewers that enjoy yeast culturing- If a starter is made from a fresh vial, one vial can be added directly to a 2 liter starter, which in 2 days will grow to approximately 240 billion cells, to achieve a pitching rate in 5 gallons of 1 million cells/ml/degree Plato (with a 12 Plato beer).
Directions for Use- Store in refrigerator until use, do not freeze. Remove 2 hours prior to addition and let warm to room temperature (~70°F). This makes re-suspension in the vial easier, and prevents a temperature shock when added to wort. Remove the shrink wrap on cap, shake the vial well to re-suspend yeast, and open cap carefully. Pour into fresh, aerated wort (by shaking fermentor for 15 minutes or injection though an aeration stone) at 70-75°F. The first sign of fermentation will be a raised airlock, then wisps of foam will start to cover the top of the wort. A full, thick krausen will be evident 1-2 hours after this. Be careful to leave enough head space in the fermentor, or use a blow off tube because some fermentations will be very active, and it is not unusual for a 5 gallon fermentation to blow the airlock off a 6.5 gallon fermentor! When fermentation activity subsides, check the gravity. If fermentation is complete, bottle the beer or transfer the fermentor to 40°F for 1 week to cold condition. Bottling or transfer to cold should take place 14 to 30 days after brewing.
Every two months, 2 new yeast strain will be released. Each of the 2 new strains will replace the existing Platinum strains.

White Labs Yeast Strain |
Platinum Yeast Strains are noted with
a "*" Fermentation temperatures are in Degrees Fahrenheit. |

This yeast is famous for its clean flavors, balance and ability to be used in almost any style ale. It accentuates the hop flavors and is extremely versatile | |
| Attenuation: 73-80; Flocculation: High; Optimum Ferm. Temp: 68-73 | ||
| English Ale (WLP002) |
A classic ESB strain from one of England's largest independent breweries. This yeast is best suited for English style ales including milds, bitters, porters, and English style stouts. This yeast will leave a beer very clear, and will leave some residual sweetness. | |
| Attenuation: 63-70; Flocculation: Very High; Optimum Ferm. Temp: 65-68 | ||
| German Ale II* Platinum Series Only (WLP003) |
Good for Kölsch, Alt, and German style Pale Ales. Strong sulfur component will reduce with aging. Clean, but with more ester production than WLP029. | |
| Attenuation: 73-80 †; Flocculation: Medium; Optimum Ferm. Temp: 65-70 | ||
| Irish Ale (WLP004) |
This is the yeast from one of the oldest stout producing breweries in the world. It produces a slight hint of diacetyl, balanced by a light frui|iness and slight dry crispness. Great for Irish ales, stouts, porters, browns, reds and a very interesting pale ale. | |
| Attenuation: 69-74; Flocculation: medium to high; Optimum Ferm. Temp: 65-68 | ||
| British Ale (WLP005) |
This yeast is a little more attenuative than WLP002. Like most English strains, this yeast produces malty beers. Excellent for all English style ales including bitter, pale ale, porter, and brown ale. | |

| Attenuation: 72-80; Flocculation: High; Optimum Ferm. Temp: 65-70 | ||
| Dry English Ale (WLP007) |
Clean, highly flocculant, and highly attenuative yeast. This yeast is similar to WLP002 in flavor profile, but is 10% more attenuative. This eliminates the residual sweetness, and makes the yeast well suited for high gravity ales. It is also reaches terminal gravity quickly. 80% attenuation will be reached even with 10% ABV beers. | |
| Attenuation: 70-80; Flocculation: High; Optimum Ferm. Temp: 65-70 | ||
| East Coast Ale (WLP008) |
Our "Brewer Patriot" strain can be used to reproduce many of the American versions of classic beer styles.

| Octoberfest/Märzen Lager (WLP820) |
This yeast produces a very malty, bock like style. It does not finish as dry as WLP830. This yeast is much slower in the first generation than WLP830, so we encourage a larger starter to be used the first generation or schedule a longer lagering time. | |
