Pillie

[NME69]

Bought a can of Morgans pilsner today and made up a brew.
When reading the info part thats under the lid it stated that it comes with a lager yeast, which is all good. But when it comes up to the part on temperatures it says to ferment at around 25 degrees ??? I thought lager yeast do better at around 12-15 degrees. Is this what makes a pilsner a pilsner, lager yeast with a higher temp?

hell no it should be the lower temp.

The lager yeast supplied with the Morgans kits is mauribrew 497 (see attached product sheet).

It ferments between 15 deg C and 30 deg C, though ferments in a more controlled fashion below 20 deg C.

I have used it with the Morgans Blue Mountain Lager kit maintaining temp between 15-18 deg C and it turned out nicely after a couple of weeks conditioning...
