Kveik Yeastery 7 g – Norwegian kveik for homebrewing

Here you will find the four original cultures from Kveik Yeastery in 7 g sachets for homebrewing: K.1 Voss, K.22 Stalljen, K.9 Ebbegarden and K.14 Eitrheim. The kveik is dried, ferments best at 31–35 °C and can finish fermentation in around 72 hours. One sachet covers about 23 litres of wort.

How to choose kveik

K.1 Voss – orange, mandarin and citrus with a mild spicy character. Ferments from 15 to 40 °C and suits farmhouse ale, IPA, pale ale and sour.
K.22 Stalljen – mango and pineapple with hints of orange and lemon. The widest range, 8–38 °C.
K.9 Ebbegarden – apple and pear with tropical fruit and citrus. Ferments at 15–38 °C.
K.14 Eitrheim – stone fruit, apricot and peach. Ferments at 15–38 °C.

The full overview of the cultures, with origin and yeast guide, is on the Kveik Yeastery brand page. The same cultures in 300 g for breweries are under Kveik Yeastery for breweries (Norway only).

How to brew with kveik at home

Sprinkle the kveik evenly over the wort, or rehydrate it first. Kveik Yeastery recommends 30 g per 100 litres, which is one sachet for a standard batch. Below 18 °C, or for strong beer above OG 1.060, 60 g per 100 litres is recommended, so two sachets. Kveik needs no cooling. Keep the wort at 31–35 °C and fermentation is fast; equipment for this is under fermentation temperature control.

Frequently asked questions about 7 g kveik

How much kveik do I need for 20 litres?

One 7 g sachet. The rate is 30 g per 100 litres. Below 18 °C or above OG 1.060, double it to 60 g per 100 litres, which means two sachets.

How warm can kveik ferment?

K.1 Voss tolerates up to 40 °C and the other three up to 38 °C. All four give the fastest results at 31–35 °C.

What is the difference between 7 g and 300 g?

The cultures are the same. The 7 g sachets are for homebrewing, while the 300 g packs are for breweries and sold in the professional range.

Is there other kveik in dry yeast form?

Yes. LalBrew Voss Kveik from Lallemand and Dried Lutra Kveik from Omega Yeast come in 11 g. Lutra ferments cleanly at 20–35 °C and is often used for pseudo-lager.
