  • Fermentis S-04 Safale S-04

    Fermentis S-04 Safale S-04

    A well-known, commercial English ale yeast, selected for its fast fermentation character and its ability to form a very compact sediment at the end of the fermentation, helping to improve beer clarity. This yeast is recommended for the production of a large range of ale beers and is specially well adapted to cask-conditioned ales and fermentation in cylindro-conical tanks. Sedimentation: high. Final gravity: medium. Pitching instructions: Re-hydrate the dry yeast into yeast cream in a stirred vessel prior to pitching. Sprinkle the dry yeast in 10 times its own weight of sterile water or wort at 27C ± 3C. Once the expected weight of dry yeast is reconstituted into cream by this method (this takes about 15 to 30 minutes), maintain a gentle stirring for another 30 minutes. Then pitch the resultant cream into the fermentation vessel. Alternatively, pitch dry yeast directly in the fermentation vessel providing the temperature of the wort is above 20C. Progressively sprinkle the dry yeast into the wort ensuring the yeast covers all the surface of wort available in order to avoid clumps. Leave for 30 minutes and then mix the wort e.g. using aeration.

Notes

brewed 9/20/02 OG 1.045 FG 1.016 I may have really screwed this one up. I took it out of the primary too soon, and it didn't finish out like it should have. Also, there were a few suspicious looking bits of residue on the sides of the fermenters that loked like some sort of very small aquatic bug. After all, if it were trub, it would have settled to the bottom, not clung to the sides. So, I bottled this beer 10/10/02 in two different varieties. I primed the beer , then drew off about one gallon and added a Tbsp. of pure vanila extract. I wound up bottling 168 ounces of the Vanilla Porter and about 340 ounces of the standard version Porter. I will update this later!
