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.
From the Ardennes region of Belgium, this classic yeast strain produces moderate levels of ester and spicy phenolic character. Typically results in a dry, but balanced finish. This yeast is well suited for Belgian dark strongs, Abbey Ales, and Christmas beers.
