White Labs - WLP820 Oktoberfest/Marzen Lager Yeast

Oktoberfest/Marzen Lager: This yeast produces a very malty bock like style. It does not finish as dry as WLP830. This yeast is much slower in the first generation than WLP830 so we encourage a larger starter to be used the first generation or schedule a longer lagering time.

Attenuation: 65-73%

Flocculation: Medium

Optimum Fermentation Temperature: 52-58¡F

Alcohol Tolerance: Medium-High

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.
