Yeast

Classic is the best all rounder Turbo Yeast, performing excellently under most conditions. Use with 8 kg of sugar for high ABV, or 6 kg of sugar for fast fermenting. Classic has been further improved with the inclusion of new mineral absorbents, further improving distillate quality. We recommend you use Turbo Carbon as it will significantly improve the performance of Classic 8 Turbo.

Pure Turbo should be used where ultimate alcohol quality is of primary importance. Only use where cool air temperature (between 18°C) can be maintained. This is a revolutionary breakthrough in Turbo Yeast development making it possible to produce "triple distilled" quality alcohol in the home. It is essential to use Turbo Carbon with Triple Distilled Turbo Yeast.

The only Turbo to use when the air temperature is above 33C. Delivers excellent quality alcohol in hot conditions. Heat is also the only yeast we recommend for `stacking `. Up to a 200 litre volume can be fermented using 8 sachets (providing the start liquid temperature and air temperature are both 20C). We recommend you use Turbo Carbon as it will significantly improve the performance of Heat Wave Turbo.

Express is the fastest Turbo on the planet, fermenting out 6kg of sugar in less than 24 hours and producing very good distillate quality. It is important that water start temperature is correct and only 6kg of sugar is used to get maximum speed. We recommend you use Turbo Carbon as it will significantly improve the performance of Express Turbo.

Alcotec Whisky Turbo Yeast contains a GA (glucoamylase) enzyme which breaks down dextrins, a by product created when you use grains or molasses in the recipe. The yeast strain itself is particularly well suited for retaining some of the flavours that create a good Whisky.

Classic 6 is the low fermentation odour. Specifically formulated to ferment 6 kg (13.2 lb) of sugar across a wide range of temperatures, while still producing a clean tasting spirit. We recommend you use Turbo Carbon as it will significantly improve the performance of Classic 6 Turbo.
