Lalvin 71B Wine Yeast (10 Pack) - Make Wine Cider Mead Kombucha At Home - 5 g Sachets - Saccharomyces cerevisiae - Sold by CAPYBARA Distributors Inc.

This yeast type is great! It smooths out acidic notes in whatever you’re brewing and makes the drink taste less bitter (if you’re using bitter fruits like cherries and raspberries), it’s easy to use but quite temperature sensitive, but it’s very effective at its job when looked after correctly!! This is my go to yeast and it’s worth every penny.

This is my choice of yeast for mead and wine. Ive brewed basic mead, fruit meads and wines, this often helps bring out bright flavours. I think I'll buy some more as its so easy to use and provides fairly quick and high quality results.

Good value, and it's definitely turning apple sugar water into wine. Not a miracle, the expected action of yeast. I'll see what it tastes like in the new year.

Good product sensibly packaged

I make a lot of cider, usually over a thousand litres annually. This is my go to yeast as most of my apples are eating apples with a fair portion of Bramley cooking apples mixed in. This gives the juice a higher than optimal pH. This yeast helps reduce the acidity, it has always fermented well and seeyto continue working in colder than perfect conditions, given that it does slow it's activity during colder months, but it doesn't stop until finished.

Bought this strain of yeast after watching a youtube channel on homebrewing (City Steading Brews), as I had originally been using EC1118, and fancied giving another yeast a try. Let me say that in my particular environment, with the brew I have been doing they have been MORE than effective. Using this yeast I had my first blowout of an airlock, and actually had to switch to a blowoff tube. They started fermenting almost twice as fast as EC1118.

Item as described, prompt delivery,well packed and reasonably priced.

Great Quality, My go to yeast for quality and effectiveness.
