Intensely fresh aromatic profile (apple, floral) with a crisp mouthfeel enhancing cider structure.
Please note that those observations are based on French cider recipe trials.
SafCider AC-4 ensures a very good assimilation of fructose and excellent for low gravity ciders.
Ingredients: Yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae), emulsifier : sorbitan monostearate (E491)
- Killer Factor: Killer
- Dry Cider Suitability: Yes
- Kinetics: Fast
- Total Acidity: High
- Total Esters: High
Dosage/Temperature
– 10 to 20 g/hl for first fermentation
– 30 to 40 g/hl for prise de mousse
– Broad fermentation temperature spectrum: 10-30°C (50-86°F).
Use
For sweet and dry ciders from fresh or concentrated apple juices.Suitable for difficult fermentation conditions and mixes with sugar syrups.
Rehydration procedure:
① Direct inoculation:
Pour the yeast on the surface at least 10 times their weight of must (possibly directly on the top of the tank or during tank filling after clarification). Gently stir to avoid or break clumps. Immediately transfer into the tank via a pumping over with aeration (or homogenize tank volume).
② With prior rehydration:
Pour the yeast on the surface of 10 times their weight of tap water at room temperature. Gently stir to avoid or break clumps. Wait for 20 minutes and transfer into the tank via a pumping over with aeration.
