Wyeast 3766 Cider
Wyeast 3766 Cider
Crisp dry fermenting yeast with big, fruity finish. Creates a nice balance for all types of apples, pears and other fruit or fermentables. Allows fruit character to dominate the profile.
Notes
Steep the crushed Caravienne grains in 155°F water for 30 minutes. Much of the flavor profile comes from the yeast; use a large starter, and keep the fermentation temperature at around 65-70°F.
