D-47 Yeast performance

The yeast performed perfectly. I have a cold basement, other yeasts don’t perform that well in my environment, D-47, it’s fermentation produced better than I could hope for. Going to use this more often!

Pleasantly surprised

I was very happy with this yeast. Used to ferment 20lbs of strawberries. Primary fermentation began within 2 to 3 hours of pitching and was very active and yield was 13% ABV. Will buy again.

Work in progress

Current batch mead with this yeast still ongoing and not finished. Can see good bubbling, so yeast active. Arrived quickly after ordering.

Hope to be able to update at later time.
