CellarScience® HEFE Dry Yeast | Wheat Ale | Premium Beer Yeast

• HEFE produces classic banana and clove notes for traditional Hefeweizen
• Contributes to a smooth body, persistent haze, and high drinkability
• Designed to be sprinkled directly onto the surface of your wort with no pre-oxygenation before pitching required
• Ferment between 59-77°F
• Pressure-Ready Performs great under pressure up to 12 PSI

HEFE is a top-fermenting dry yeast, crafted specifically for wheat beers. It produces the hallmark banana and clove aromas expected in traditional Hefeweizen styles, with a clean, smooth finish and excellent drinkability. HEFE produces bright, refreshing wheat beers with pronounced banana notes (isoamyl acetate) at the higher end of its temperature range. Subtle clove character (4-vinyl guaiacol) at the lower end. Expect a smooth body and a persistent, signature haze. For brewers using pressure-capable fermenters, HEFE performs great up to 12 PSI, allowing warmer, faster fermentations while dialing back its classic banana and clove expression for a noticeably cleaner profile.

• Fermentation Temperature: 59-77°F (15-25°C), optimal range 64-72°F (18-22°C)

• Attenuation: 80–91%

• Alcohol Tolerance: Up to 10% ABV

• Flocculation: Low

• Direct Pitch: No rehydration needed

• Reliable & Consistent: Every batch undergoes PCR testing for quality control

• High Cell Count: 15g per sachet (over 36% more than standard 11g dry yeast packs)

Dosage:
One sachet is enough to treat a 5–6 gallon batch. When calculating for larger batches, use at a rate of 2–3 grams per gallon of wort. We recommend rounding up by one full sachet rather than measuring out the yeast exactly.
