BrewTek CL-200 Scottish Ale
BrewTek CL-200 Scottish Ale
Use for classic Scottish heavys, 90's- or strong ales. This yeast produces a soft, fruity malt profile with a subtle woody, oakey ester profile. A mild, mineral like dryness in the finish makes this a very complex strain.
Notes
Boiled 3 gal of water to 170 degrees, poured on grain, let convert 1 1/2 hr. Sparged with 5 gal of water at 170 degrees.
