Still Spirits Classic Turbo Yeast 18% 175 gm

It is the best running yeast I've found!

Accidentally reordered, originally got the first one for sourdough experiment (did not work well) and by the time I realized I hit reorder it was too late to cancel. But thats my fault, the item itself works well, I've used it in the past to Kickstart a 5 gallon peach wine I Accidentally put too much fermentables into that had stalled. Took a long time for funky taste to go away but worked like a charm. Guess I'll keep it around and maybe try making a very sturdy wine at some point.

Follow the directions, enjoy some good alcohol!

The yeast seemed dead on arrival. I Tried blooming it several times and initially there was no activity. However it just took a while to get started. After a few hours, my mix was ripping with champagne bubbles. Now after 72 hours the result is quite good!

I originally used this strain only for its ability to chew through sugar fast. And don't get me wrong, I've never seen anything like it. But, in my opinion, it also has a good flavour profile. I have one batch of pyment that I drink while actively fermenting (for some health benefits), and the yeast themselves have a silky and buttery flavour that a lot of wine yeasts don't have. It reminds me of bread yeast, without any bitter notes, if that makes sense. So, obviously, this is 10/10 for alcohol production. 1 gallon will usually ferment to near completion in ~ 5 days. Which is high key amazing. But I was also surprised by how good the actual yeasts themselves taste. And I'm still experimenting with all of this. But these guys have become my favourite (at this point, my only) yeasts. Does anybody else call them "Yeasty Boys"?

Good stuff! Gets the abv up there

so what I needed to make my brew up here in the mountains

This is junk. Yeast of very low quality. There is at least 10% sand like material in the bag. I used 2 bags, both started but never fermented all sugar in mash. Not recommended.
