Turbo Yeast, for high fermentation to 20%vol, 115g

Turbo yeast is especially suited to making high-grade mashes. By adding sugar and this Swedish special yeast, you can reach an alcohol content of 20% ABV in the mash. The alcohol content of conventional mashes, in contrast, is only 2 to 8% ABV, depending on the type of fruit. Unlike conventional mashes, a high-grade mash does not have to be distilled twice, among other reasons because there is a higher yield AND more flavor in the distillate. More in-depth information on this can be found in our book The Artisan’s Guide to Crafting Distilled Spirits.

With the correct use of turbo yeast, the mash is demonstrably free of heads. In addition, due to the high alcohol content, annoying faulty fermentations and yeast film are effectively prevented. In contrast to turbo yeasts from other manufacturers, there is NO moldy or musty off-odor or taste with this pure culture yeast.

One small bag of turbo yeast (115 g) is enough for 100 liters of fruit mash or 25 liters of pure sugar water, if you want to make unflavored alcohol that can then be used for making spirits or liqueurs, or alternatively for infusions. For mashing fruit, you need pectinate and Biogen M as well as the turbo yeast.

The yeast comes with a short guide in German for both variants (fruit mashes or alternatively sugar water).
