Mile Hi Distilling 48-Hour Turbo Yeast with AG 22lb (10kg)
Dual Purpose Turbo Yeast 14% in 48 hours or 20% in 5 days. The 48-Hour Turbo Yeast with AG 22lb (10kg) is specially formulated for a pure fermentation, and produces very little volatiles. Specifically formulated to work with just sugar or mash made with corn, barley, rye, oats, etc.
This is a 22 pound bag.
Instructions: Pour 5.5 gallons (21L) of warm water (104 Degrees Fahrenheit/40 Degrees Celsius) into your fermenter. Add 13 lbs. sugar to make 14% alc./vol. in 2 days, or 18 lbs. to make 20% alc./vol. in 5 days. Mix well until sugar is completely dissolved. Add the Turbo Yeast package contents and stir for one minute. Leave to ferment between 70-85 Degrees Fahrenheit/21-30 Degrees Celsius until fermentation ceases. Complete fermentation times are temperature dependent.
Important Notice: After your sugar is dissolved, cool to 70-80 Degrees Fahrenheit before adding your yeast. Any temperature 60 Degrees Fahrenheit or lower will cause your yeast to become dormant and over 90F is too hot and will kill off yeast
Instructions will also be labeled on bag of yeast.
I own a small distillery and we use this yeast for hard to ferment washes. 100% agave wash sometimes gets infections while using other yeast strains with nutrients but it always works with this yeast.
