Omega Yeast | OYL-200 Tropical IPA | Beer Yeast | Double Pitch | 225 Billion Cells

    Description

    • OYL-200 is a unique strain that produces delicate, tart, tropical mango and pineapple fruit characteristics with a clean finish
    • Higher fermentation temperatures will greatly boost the tropical aspects
    • Double pitch size with a minimum of 225 billion cells—twice the size of the standard yeast pitch
    • Proprietary propagation methods generate fresh, metabolically strong yeast cells and optimal biomass
    • Omega Yeast is founded on curiosity and innovation, expertly producing common workhorse varieties and many unique strains

    This former Brettanomyces strain was reclassified as Saccharomyces, making for a particularly unique yeast strain. Tropical IPA produces a delicate, tart, tropical mango and pineapple fruit character with a clean finish. This yeast excels at high temperatures, and will produce a more intense tropical profile the higher the fermentation temp gets. Notoriously non-flocculent, but the amazing flavor is well worth it.

    Attenuation: 85+%
    Flocculation: Low
    Alcohol Tolerance: 10% ABV
    Optimum Fermentation Temp: 75-85°F
    Cell Count: 225 Billion
     

    Please Note: For best results we Always recommend ordering an Ice Pack with your liquid yeast. Ice Packs can be found below in the "You might Also Need" section.

    Please Note: When choosing an ice pack option beware that the liquid yeast will not arrive cold even when shipped together. Ice packs and insulated mailing options are designed to keep the yeast colder for longer during shipment, but they will not ensure that your yeast arrives cold. We will not replace liquid yeast that arrives warm. During warmer months we strongly recommend you choose dry yeast.

        Awesome Tropical Yeast

        First time I tried Omega yeast and it was fantastic. Fast clean fermentation. I used the tropical yeast to make a citra style ale with outstanding flavors!!! I'm hooked.

        You guys should add this info to the description

        This is from Omega Yeast website: This strain tests positive for the STA1 gene an indicator of Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. diastaticus and is capable of fermenting dextrins resulting in very high attenuation.

        Did as a SMASH with pale malt and my favorite hop (galaxy) at 40 ibu predicted and 6%. Very weird flavor to say the least. Fermented at 70 degrees to have mild ester production. Very stubborn yeast did not flocculate (I don't really care about flocculation). Huge nose nose of pineapple and mango. I've done mango beers that had less mango on the nose. However, the beer had a bit of fusel alcohol taste and was very dry. Definitely a hard yeast to work with on the flavor profile sense of thing but I do see myself buying this yeast again in the future to do more experiments.
