Escarpment Laboratories Saison Maison Yeast

Saisson Maison Yeast

This is a non-diastatic yeast isolated from a Belgian Saison. This is quite unique in the saison yeast world, as most saison yeasts contain the STA1 glucoamylase gene, resulting in extremely dry beers. This yeast is suitable for breweries who want to produce authentic Saisons but who are put off by the risk of diastatic yeasts. Saison Maison attenuates in a manner similar to many workhorse ale strains like Cali Ale. Escarpment Labs recommends fermenting hot (up to 35ºC) and dosing additional oxygen.

Attenuation: ~80%
Temperature: 22ºC + (72ºF+)
Alcohol tolerance: Medium-high
