Supplied in a one-pound bulk pack, this yeast is intended for use in mashes and syrup fermentations where stable, predictable fermentation and strong alcohol tolerance are needed. Use within recommended temperature ranges to achieve the best performance and consistent results.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does DADY perform in grain mash fermentations?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDADY is selected specifically for fermenting grain-based mashes, where it demonstrates reliable attenuation and ethanol production when environmental conditions are controlled.
