  • Belle Saison is a Belgian-style ale yeast selected specifically for it ability to create Saison-style beers.  It is a diastaticus strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae that allows brewers to achieve the high attenuation characteristic of this classic style of beer.  Designed for warm-temperature fermentation true to traditional “Farmhouse” production methods, beer brewed with Belle Saison are fruity, spicy and refreshing.  Through expression of a beta-glucosidase enzyme, it can promote hop biotransformation and accentuate hop flavor and aroma in hoppy Saison-style beers.
  • A pitch rate of 50-100 grams per hectoliter of wort is sufficient to achieve optimal results for most fermentations.  More stressful fermentations such as high gravity, high adjunct or high acidity may require higher pitch rates and additional nutrients to ensure a healthy fermentation.
  • Belle Saison yeast may be re-pitched just as you would with any other type of yeast.  Wort aeration is required when re-pitching dry yeast.
  • Dry pitching is the preferred method of inoculating the wort.  This method is simpler than rehydration and will give more consistent fermentation performance and reduce the risk of contamination.  Simply sprinkle the yeast evenly on the surface of the wort in the fermenter as it is being filled.
  • Vigorous fermentation that can be completed in 10 days.  The majority of fermentation is complete after the first 4 days, with gravity continuing to drop slowly thereafter due to glucoamylase activity.  Make sure final gravity is stable prior to packaging.
