Good Day
Has anyone used Mauri's dried ale or dried lager yeast before and/or do you have any opinions re performance, flavour profile etc ?
PRODUCT
Selected Pure Active Dry Brewing Yeast
STRAIN
Y514 - English Ale
Origin - AB Mauri Culture Collection - Sydney,
Australia
TYPE
Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Top Fermenting Ale Brewing Yeast
FERMENTATION CHARACTERISTICS
RATE OF FERMENTATION
A rapid fermenter at warm ambient temperatures,
resulting in a typical fermentation time of between 3
and 7 days.
TEMPERATURE RANGE
17-30C (62-86F) is optimal for this strain. Beer
structure may benefit from fermentations with this
strain after acclimatising to lower temperatures for
prolonged yeast contact at 10-15C (50-59F).
DEGREE OF ATTENUATION
This strain rapidly attenuates fermentable sugars
with a typical wort falling from a gravity of
1040-1045 resulting in a beer of less than 1008.
ALCOHOL TOLERANCE
This ale yeast is renowned for its tolerance in
commercial beer styles with up to 9.5% alcohol.
YEAST HEAD FORMATION
Though a top fermenter, this yeast produce nominal
yeast head through stages of maximum gravity loss.
FINAL CLARITY
One of the selection criteria used for this strain was
its generally very good settling properties even at
warmer ambient temperatures 20-30C (68-86F).
USING DRIED BREWERS YEAST
Reconstituting 25 to 50g of Mauribrew dried yeast
per 100 litres of wort will achieve 5 to 10 x 106
viable cells per ml of wort.
w Rehydrate the yeast by slowly sprinkling it into 5
to 10 times its weight of clean water between 37
to 40C (98 to 104F).
w Allow to stand for 15 minutes then adjust the
temperature of the rehydrated yeast to within 5C
(41F) of the wort to be inoculated by adding wort
to the yeast and water solution. Never subject the
yeast to temperature shock. For best results the
wort should be 15C (59F) or higher.
w Add this rehydrated yeast to the wort to initiate
fermentation and aerate.
w Use the rehydrated yeast within 30 minutes of
rehydration.

Where could someone purchase it? Is it the generic yeast Brigalow sells?
