Fermentis SafBrew™ LA-01 10kg

SafBrew™ LA-01 is the premier solution for brewers looking to meet the growing demand for low-alcohol and alcohol-free beers. Its uniqueness lies in its metabolism: it only ferments simple sugars (glucose, fructose, sucrose), leaving complex sugars intact to provide body and sweetness to the finished beer.

With medium sedimentation, it delivers a beer with a slight natural turbidity, typical of craft styles. For optimal results, it is recommended to use high-temperature mashing to maximise non-fermentable sugars and enhance the mouthfeel.

Advantages of SafBrew™ LA-01

• Alcohol Control: Easily achieve < 0.5% ABV depending on your brewing parameters.
• Body and Mouthfeel: Preserves a satisfying palate experience despite the low alcohol content, thanks to residual sugars.
• Consistent Performance: Highly stable strain ensuring reproducibility batch after batch.

Important Note: Due to the high level of residual sugars, pasteurisation of the finished product is mandatory to prevent any unwanted secondary fermentation in the bottle or keg.
