WLP007 - Dry English Ale Yeast - White Labs - 5 gallon batch size
Clean, highly flocculent, and highly attenuative yeast. This yeast is similar to WLP002 in flavor profile, but it is 10% more attenuative. This eliminates the residual sweetness, and makes the yeast well suited for high gravity ales. It is also reaches terminal gravity quickly. 80% attenuation can be reached even with 10% ABV beers. This strain has become a go-to house strain for American breweries due to its clean profile and high attenuation. It’s an ideal strain for American and English hoppy beers as well as malty ambers, porters and brown ales. This strain can be a substitute for WLP001 California Ale Yeast.
To enhance attenuation, consider adding Servomyces to the kettle at the end of the boil, and then a 6 grams per 5 gallons addition of Fermaid K half-way through the fermentation. This nutrient schedule acts as a supplement to your yeast for exposure to high alcohols.
Attenuation: 70-85%
Flocculation: High
Optimum Fermenation Temp: 65-70 F
For best results we always recommend ordering an ice pack with your liquid yeast, particularly during warmer months and for orders shipped to warm climates.
