Young's Super Wine Yeast Compound 60g β€” All-in-One Wine Yeast

Young's Super Wine Yeast Compound is a convenient all-in-one fermentation compound combining wine yeast with yeast nutrient, pectolase, and vitamin B1 β€” everything your wine needs to ferment cleanly and completely, in a single 60g sachet. Suitable for up to 10 gallons (45 litres) of wine or must.

It's one of the most popular wine yeasts in the UK for good reason: it removes the need to source multiple additives separately, simplifying the winemaking process without compromising results. Especially useful for fruit wines, country wines, and kit wines.

Contains

  • Wine yeast β€” for reliable, vigorous fermentation
  • Yeast nutrient β€” feeds the yeast for a complete fermentation
  • Pectolase β€” breaks down pectin and prevents haze in fruit wines
  • Vitamin B1 β€” supports healthy yeast activity

Kit Details

  • Weight: 60g
  • Treats: up to 10 gallons (45 litres)
  • Suitable for: all wine and country wine styles

Pair with Campden Tablets to stabilise your wine before bottling, and Bentonite if you want a crystal-clear finish. Also available individually: Yeast Nutrient and Pectolase. Compare this against every wine yeast we stock β†’
