This Prisse de Mousse strain is fast-starting, clean and neutral. EC-1118 is a popular choice because of its consistently strong fermentation characteristics and high alcohol tolerance, up to 18%. The first choice for champagne and sparkling wines. Also good for restarting stuck fermentations. Ferments between 50 and 80 degrees. Lalvin EC-1118 Saccharomyces bayanus (10 Packs) Dissolve 1 pack (4.82g) in warm water or mix with dry ingredients and add to the main mixture early in the process. Review: Will make some rocket fuel if you dont know what you are doing :P - Bought to make my first meads with before I knew much about different yeast types and their uses. It effectively flew through the mead I made as my first batch, but left it a little hot and phenolic. I have now switched to Lalvin 71b for most of my uses but keep the EC-1118 incase a fermentation stalls, or I want to make a really high strength brew. Buying 10 at a time means I will have some on hand for quite some time as I dont make batches big enough to use a whole packet at a time. so the value to me was very good. Packets are a good size for brewing, and seal back up easily with a little folding and some tape. Review: It works!!! - Good stuff!!! Used it for a cherry wine brew. 1-2 hours it was well under way. For the cherry brew I added a little citric acid, and some nutrient. I am 4th day into the brew and she 9%abv. I'd say its looking good!!!

Need larger instructions
The instructions are writ so small, it is impossible to read them without a magnifying glass. There is more information than you need on the packet but what you DO need, ain't easy to find
