SafAle T-58 11.5g – spicy and fruity dry yeast
SafAle T-58 from Fermentis is a distinctive yeast strain selected for its strong fermentation character. It produces intense fruity and phenolic flavours, especially banana, clove and peppery notes. The yeast suits a wide range of wheat-based beers and fruity, spicy beer styles, such as Belgian-inspired beers.
T-58 has medium sedimentation. It forms no clumps, but a powdery haze when it is stirred up in the beer.
