Now with more yeast, you get double the pitch. PurePitch® Next Generation is designed to pitch at a rate of 7.5 million cells/mL per 5 gallons/19 liters, a commercially recommended pitching rate for standard ale ranges. PurePitch® Next Generation has an improved proprietary film designed specifically for White Labs and allows for one-way off-gassing to reduce product inflation and deliver higher yeast health and longer shelf life.

This strain ferments much cleaner than its hefeweizen strain counterparts. It produces very slight banana and clove notes and has low flocculation, leaving resulting beers with characteristic cloudiness.

- Styles: American Wheat Beer

- Attenuation: 70-75%

- Flocculation: Low

- Fermentation Temperature: 65-69°F (18-21°C)

- Alcohol Tolerance: Medium

This popular German strain is used in the production of traditional, authentic hefeweizen.

It produces a high level of isoamyl acetate, giving the resulting beer notes of banana.
With balanced phenol production, this strain produces notes of clove but remains banana-forward.
Low flocculation leaves the desired cloudy look, appropriate for the German wheat beer style.
The pitching rate and temperature will dramatically affect the flavor and aroma of this strain. Traditional brewing techniques suggest underpitching to produce more classic characteristics of the style.
