This dry brewing yeast produces the typical flavours so characteristic of German Weizen styles. Like all yeasts of this strain, its flavour profile is highly dependent on the fermentation temperature, producing a combination of cloves and other spicy phenols at lower temperatures with fruity esters (especially banana) at higher temperatures. Makes for crisp, refreshing and very drinkable Weizen styles such as Kristalwiezen, Hefeweizen, Dunkel and Weizenbock.

Similar to: White Labs WLP380, WYeast 3333, Fermentis WB-06.

Attenuation: very high. Flocculation: low. Fruity esters: high. Spicy phenols: high. Fermentation temperature: 14-26°C (phenol/ester balance depends on temperature). For 25 L. (Datasheet available for download.)

This dry brewing yeast is capable of producing both regular and strong Belgian ales with a dry, crisp flavour profile and an neutral, restrained and aromatic character. It allows for the production of hop-forward beers and styles that need a nutty, toasty or bready malt character to come through on the palate. Well suited for light bodied, medium dry to dry styles such as pale ales, dubbel, tripel and Trappist styles as well as the drier varieties of English barley wines, Scottish strong ales and even IPAs.

Similar to: White Labs WLP530, WYeast 3787, Fermentis BE-256.

This dry brewing yeast produces sweet, full-bodied beers with a pronounced yet subtle and restrained fruity character. Its high alcohol tolerance makes it excellently suited for a variety of strong, heavy styles that call for a certain amount of residual sugars to balance against a high alcohol level. This is the yeast of choice for Belgian dubbel, tripel, abbey and speciality ales, Belgian and English barley wines, Scottish strong ales as well as sweet and Imperial stouts.

Somewhat similar to: White Labs WLP006, Fermentis S-33.

Attenuation: low. Flocculation: low to medium. Fruity esters: high. Fermentation temperature: 12-28°C (recommended: 20-24°C for optimum flavour balance). Alcohol tolerance: 12% ABV. For 25 L. (Datasheet available for download.)

This reliable dried yeast of the Chico strain is great for many American styles such as blonde, pale, amber and brown American ales, American porters and stouts, IPA's and many more, but its versatility also makes it well suited for any beer that calls for a light body, a clean, mild fruitiness and good drinkability. It is also popular for the fermentation of Irish ales, dry stouts and specialty ales. At the low end of the fermentation temperature range it will even give good results when used to produce traditionally fermented Altbier, barley wines and American and Australian wheat beers.

Similar to: White Labs WLP001, WYeast 1056, Fermentis US-05.

Hallertauer Perle is a versatile German dual-purpose hop which is very popular in many European styles including lagers, Pilseners and strong lagers (both for bittering and flavouring) but is also used frequently as a fine bittering hop in many English, Irish and English ales. Perle has a well-balanced character with medium bitterness and a mild to moderate flavour and aroma with pleasing elements of spice and pepper and subtle minty, evergreen, and woody/earthy elements topped off with subtle hints of green fruit, light florals, and tea. It is a popular substitute for the English Target and Northern Brewer varietals. Alpha acids typically 8-9%.

This carrying handle clips on top of the 5 litre party keg (surprisingly firmly!) and makes it easier to carry full kegs. They are compatible with the Party Star pressurized tapping device, i.e. they don't have to be removed in order to fit the tapping device.

(Listed in: Kegging)

This grey rubber bung is reusable, and can be used in combination with the keg's integrated tap or with the Party Star pressurised tapping device. The keg is opened by pushing the plastic insert into the keg. This means that, once opened, the keg can't be closed. Once the keg is empty the bung and insert can be removed without tools and reused.

(Listed in: Kegging)

This red plastic bung is a single-use bung that can either be used as an air inlet for kegs with an integrated tap (in which case it can be closed again after use) or with the Party Star pressurized tapping device (in which case it acts as a seal that is broken when the tapping device is inserted). The bung can be removed from the keg using pliers and/or a screwdriver, but not without damaging the bung.

This clear, transparent PVC tubing can be used for a variety of brewing applications, from siphoning to being mounted as a fixed beer line on your full grain brewing set-up. It can be mounted onto normal, domestic plumbing tubing and sockets using off-the-shelf hose clamps. Note that the material exhibits a slight plastic smell when new, this soon disappears, especially when you run a little hot water through it over the course of a few days. The specified size is the inner diameter.
