Imperial Yeast A09 Pub
Imperial Yeast A09 Pub
Brewers swear by this strain to achieve super bright ales in a short amount of time. One of the most flocculent brewer’s strains around, Pub will rip through fermentation and then drop out of the beer quickly. Pub produces higher levels of esters than most domestic ale strains. Be sure to give beers made with Pub a sufficient diacetyl rest.
Notes
steep cracked grains in 1.5 gallons water at 152 degrees 30 minutes, sparge with 2 qts at 165 degrees. bring boil to 3 gallons after adding extracts. bring cooled wort to 5 1/3 gallons before pitching yeast.
