White Labs WLP060 American Ale Yeast Blend
White Labs WLP060 American Ale Yeast Blend
Our most popular yeast strain is WLP001, California Ale Yeast. This blend celebrates the strengths of California- clean, neutral fermentation, versatile usage, and adds two other strains that belong to the same 'clean/neutral' flavor category. The additional strains create complexity to the finished beer. This blend tastes more lager like than WLP001. Hop flavors and bitterness are accentuated, but not to the extreme of California. Slight sulfur will be produced during fermentation.
Notes
Mash in at 132F and rest at 122 for 30 minutes. Rest for 20 minutes at 150F. Rest for 20 minutes at 158F Mash out and lauter. Additives: Corriander and irish moss added with 20 minutes left in the boil. DME, LME, and bitter orange peel added with 15 minutes left in the boil. Honey added with 1 minute left.
