Wyeast 1056 American Ale (2 pack)

The yeast was very fresh, agitated in the pack and then added directly to the wort. I started getting fermentation within 12 hours and overall worked really well (OG from 1.096 to 1.009 in 7 days). The final product worked out really well! This yeast does take a long time to settle (4-6 weeks), so plan accordingly.

Used this yeast for a Dragon’s Silk recipe kit. Did a 2 liter starter for it and pitched at 48 hours. This yeast took off in 4 hours and chewed though 80% of the sugar in 3 days. Surprisingly it didn’t need a blowoff hose, but it did seem very active. No off smells or flavors coming from the beer, clean.

We did the Plinian Legacy and hit 1.080 O.G., and the Wyeast has been successful in doing the job. Just racked a few days ago after 2 week primary fermentation. Gravity was 1.020. We are hoping to chew off a few more points.
