It is also Lalvin's primary yeast to restart stuck fermentations and to naturally carbonate home-made soda. This is the original ‘PRISE DE MOUSSE’ yeast of ancient fame. 500 gram brick, enough for 500 gallons! Review: POWERFUL - Powerful results what else can I say? This yeast produced an end product that had much higher alcohol content than I or my family was expecting, thats not to say that it was bad (the taste was nice actually) but it was surprisingly strong. I should also warn that in the few batched I have made I keep getting a syrupy taste despite trying different recipes, it may have to do with this yeast, who knows.
