Saccharomyces bayanus -

Post by brewbrew » Fri Aug 07, 2020 4:26 pm

Does anyone use S. bayanus for their cider?

I have just got hold of the one marketed by Youngs - to get a clean, headache free cider.

The professional cider makers that share info suggest that 15 deg C is a good cider fermentation target - but that could be the reality of farm ciders in an autumn barn.

I can't see anything from home brewers on the ideal temp for this yeast.

Does anyone have a view?

Cheers,

BB
