Gervin - GV1 - Universal Yeast

Gervin GV1 Universal Yeast (green label) is a general-purpose wine yeast for all everyday wine types. It starts quickly, settles well and leaves a clean bouquet, so it is a safe choice when a recipe simply says "wine yeast".

Key features

• Universal wine yeast for all general wine types
• Quick start to fermentation
• Settles well, helping the wine clear
• Clean bouquet that lets the fruit show
• Dried yeast in a sachet

How to use

Prepare your must, then sprinkle the dried yeast onto the surface - Gervin say there is no need to stir. Sanitise everything that touches the must with no-rinse ChemSan first.

Goes well with

• Yeast Nutrient - helps fruit and country wines ferment fully
• Brewing & Winemaking Sugar for country wine recipes
• 5L Glass Demijohn with Airlock for one-gallon batches
• Campden Tablets - 1 tablet per gallon

A good all-rounder for beginners and for kit or country wines when you are not sure which strain to pick. Compare it with the rest of the Gervin Yeast Full Range, or use our Wine Yeast Selector.
