Pinnacle Distillers Yeast (S) is an active dry yeast well-suited for use in batch and continuous fermentations of molasses and pure sugars. It has a high tolerance to early residual sugars. This workhorse strain has a neutral profile and ferments very quickly. In addition to rum, it works quite well for hard seltzer.

• Has a high cell count (>1 x 10¹⁰ cells/g)
• Rehydrates well in direct pitch applications
• Has high ethanol and temperature tolerance
• Has organic acid tolerance
• Can be used in conjunction with nutritional and vitamin supplementations

Application:
This yeast product has optimal performance within a pH range of 4.0 to 5.0 but can ferment well in the range of 3.5 to 6.0. Optimal fermentation temperature is dependent on other stresses present (i.e. organic acid, ethanol and pH) but generally ferments well in the range of 92-98°F (33-37°C). Under various process conditions, this yeast can produce high ethanol titres under a broad range of applications and substrate type.

Pinnacle Distillers Yeast began its life more than 30 years ago within the Scotch whisky sector. Over time, their yeast has become a well-established essential ingredient in the making of some of the finest award-winning malt and grain whiskies we are drinking today – not only in Scotland but around the world. In response to the growth of global spirits using many different substrates and a variety of multiple-sized, challenging processes, the family of Pinnacle Distillers Yeast has grown and is still increasing to meet future market demands.
