Description

LalBrew Köln® is ideal for brewing traditional Kölsch-style beers and other neutral ales.  The neutral character of this strain accentuates delicate hop aromas while imparting subtle fruity esters.  Through expression of a beta-glucosidase enzyme LalBrew® Köln can promote hop biotransformation and accentuate hop flavor and aroma. Colder fermentations will be more neutral in character, while warmer fermentations will have more fruit-forward ester profile.

Please see PITCHING RATE CALCULATOR HERE

Pitching rate of 1.5g per litre is recommended. If fermenting wort at 20c and a SG of 1.050 4 sachets is recommended

  1. Gregg Fryman (verified owner)

    No lag for me!!!! Reviewed because my experience with this yeast is not what i had read or expected!!!

    I found NO lag with this yeast…the exact opposite. Very active fermentation after 12 hours. Pitched at 1g/liter @ 23 degrees and which was dropped down to 16 over the first 12 hours where it is bubbling away nicely. I transferred wort on top of it in the fermenter (rather than pitching at the end of the transfer) I had read it helped reduce lag with dried yeast…Worked a treat!!!
