White Labs Liquid Yeast

Each vial of White Labs liquid yeast is designed to be used directly in 5 gallons, hence the term "pitchable yeast." Each vial is equivalent in cell count to a pint starter, or 75-150 billion cells. One vial will usually start fermentation in 5 gallons in 5-15 hours at 70°F. If a faster start is desired, or if initial gravity is over 1.070, we recommend a 1-2 pint starter be made.

Liquid yeast should be refrigerated upon arrival and is perishable. Short-term exposure to mild temperatures will not harm the yeast, but ice packs are available for longer shipments and summer orders.
