Bulldog Bayanus Yeast 10g is an excellent all-round yeast strain based on Saccharomyces bayanus, ideal for high-alcohol and fortified wines, Champagne and sparkling wine production, and most country wines. Its high alcohol tolerance and clean fermentation character make it a versatile and reliable choice.
Use for high-gravity fruit wines, meads, or as a re-starter for stuck fermentations in high-alcohol environments. Pair with Yeast Nutrient. Also see: Lalvin EC-1118 as an alternative champagne-style yeast.
