Imperial Yeast B45 Gnome
Imperial Yeast B45 Gnome
Gnome is the yeast for brewing Belgian inspired beers in a hurry. This strain is extremely flocculent and drops out of the beer quickly after fermentation. Gnome produces a nice phenolic character that goes well with hops, as well as with caramel and toffee flavors. Great for Belgian ales that need to be crystal clear without filtration.
Notes
treated mash water with 3 grams of gypsum, 2 grams of calcium chloride, 1 gram sea salt
