Frequently asked questions about WLP830 German Lager Yeast
What temperature should WLP830 ferment at?
The ideal fermentation temperature is 10–13 °C. For that you need a fridge or fermentation chamber with temperature control.
Do I need a yeast starter?
PurePitch Next Generation is designed to be pitched without a starter. Lager yeast needs more cells than ale yeast, so for strong beers or larger batches you need more yeast.
Which beer styles is WLP830 suited to?
German lager, pilsner, Oktoberfest and Märzen, and almost any other pilsner style. It gives a clean beer with a clear malt profile.
Do I need a diacetyl rest?
With traditional lager yeast it is common to raise the temperature a few degrees towards the end of fermentation, so the yeast cleans up diacetyl, which tastes of butter.
