Lallemand CBC-1 Yeast

CBC-1 has been especially selected for its re-fermentation properties and is recommended for Cask and Bottle Conditioning. It re-ferments beers up to 12-14% ABV due to its high resistance to alcohol and pressure; it does not produce flavors therefore conserving the original character of the beer. The yeast will settle and form a tight mat at the end of re-fermentation.

CBC-1 can also be used for primary fermentation and is especially suitable for Champagne-like beers and fruit beers.

CBC-1 will ferment and re-ferment within a range of temperature of 15° to 25°C (59° to 77°F).

This particular strain has also been extensively tested for high gravity brewing to produce flavored-alcohol beverages.
