This species is maltose-negative as it does not ferment maltose or other larger sugars and will only ferment glucose, sucrose, and fructose.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nAttenuation ranges will vary depending on recipe and\/or mash profile\nThis strain is appropriate for all styles of low-alcohol\/non-alcoholic beer. Although it would be categorized as a wild yeast, it would not typically be considered a beer spoiler as it does not have the ability to ferment larger sugars. Using this strain to create a low-alcohol\/NA beer requires a modified recipe.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/blog.whitelabs.com\/tips-from-the-pitch-non\/low-alcoholic-beers\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eTips for brewing NA beers\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAttenuation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0% - 20%\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlocculation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMedium\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFermentation Temp\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e68° - 75° F\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAlcohol Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLow (2% - 5%)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuggested Styles\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNA Beers, Low ABV Beers\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy PurePitch Next Gen versus other options?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTypically yeast manufacturers use a range for how many yeast cells are going into each package. This can vary widely, especially from strain to strain.  Next Gen offers a far more precise cell count across all strains allowing you to use the Whitelabs exclusive pitch calculator. Simply scan the barcode on the back of each package to be taken to their online calculator. Enter the volume, strength, and pitching temperature of the wort you are fermenting and the calculator tells you exactly how much yeast to pitch. You will be fermenting like a professional brewer, using the same concentration of yeast every time and enjoying more consistent results.  Don't need a full package? Put the lid back on and store in the refrigerator for your next batch. Whitelabs has also increased the viability (the number of living cells in the package) over the shelf life of the yeast. Next Gen strains are grown in their unique, small-batch reactors to assure freshness and then packaged in a special film that allows for off-gassing, assuring that their viability is absolutely industry leading.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hop Head Brew Supply","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47831056449794,"sku":null,"price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0714\/2881\/files\/PUREPITCH_f04495ff-b7ac-4bce-8e5c-3e488b343915.png?v=1683298628","url":"https:\/\/www.hopcraftsupply.com\/products\/white-labs-wlp618-na-all-day-purepitch-next-generation","provider":"Hop Craft Supply Co.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
