Premium® Fructo 500g

For White wines, Sparkling, & high must weight red table wines. Sacch. Bayanus

SKU: WZZZ1370

Premium® Fructo Saccharomyces bayanus 

The special strain is recommended as a restart for sluggish or stuck fermentations. It metabolizes fructose (often found in very high concentrations in a stuck fermentation), thus making it ideal for re-inoculation.  It is an excellent choice for a second yeast in problematic fermentations, retaining the aromatics from the primary yeast while taking the wine to dryness. It is not recommended as the primary yeast for must fermentation.

Dose:

  • High Alc Sequential Ferment = 20-30 g/hL
