Product details

WildBrew™ Helveticus Pitch 10 grams is a ready-to-use dried bacteria, a strain of Lactobacillus helveticus specifically selected for its ability to produce a wide range of sour beer styles. In comparison to WildBrew™ Sour Pitch, the new bacteria produces a more intense citrusy flavor at higher temperatures. Additionally, WildBrew™ Helveticus Pitch will deliver unmatched consistency, effortless application, fully assured performance, and unparalleled purity for brewing the sour beer style of your choice.

WildBrew™ Helveticus Pitch is recommended at a dosage of 10g/hl to pour directly into the unhoped wort.

WildBrew™ Helveticus Pitch is part of a wider set of solutions for sour beer making, which also includes the newly launched WildBrew™ Philly Sour that can produce lactic acid and ethanol simultaneously.

Yeast Features:

  • Aroma: Strong citrus, tangy, intense sour
  • Temp Range: 100F - 113F (38C - 45C)
  • pH Range: 3.0 - 3.5
