2X Lalvin EC-1118 Champagne Yeast 5g Sachet 18% Homebrew Wine Making 4.5L-23L

What's not to like about the performance of this yeast? Compared to those of years ago, this one is an absolute dream. It's quick to start (no faffing around with a started mixture, just pitch it in and away it goes), froths a little to start with but that normally goes away. It doesn't produce any off tastes that I've noticed but you do sometimes have to add some additional yeast nutrient, from halfway through the fermentation, when the yeast (in some cases) uses up all that's available. It ferments out very fast, is alcohol tolerant at normal wine concentrations - so no 'stuck' fermentations - and stops equally suddenly. The fermentation can produce some heat, and at normal room temperatures there's no need to keep the fermentation warm. When finished it settles quickly and stays firmly on the bottom of the container but in my experience it will allow you a few weeks to syphon your wine off without risk of the yeast causing any off tastes during that time. All-in-all an excellent yeast and an incredible improvement of the ones I used to use, when first starting off with this all in the early 1980s.
