EC-1118Saccharomyces bayanus Origin The EC-1118 strain was isolated, studied and selected from Champagne fermentations. Due to its competitive factor and ability to ferment equally well over a wide temperature range, the EC-1118 is one of the most widely used yeasts in the world. Oenological properties and applications The fermentation characteristics of the EC-1118 -- extremely low production of foam, volatile acid and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) -- make this strain an excellent choice. This strain ferments well over a very wide temperature range, from 10� to 30�C (50� to 86�F) and demonstrates high osmotic and alcohol tolerance. Good flocculation with compact lees and a relatively neutral flavor and aroma contribution are also properties of the EC-1118. The EC-1118 strain is recommended for all types of wines, including sparkling, and late harvest wines and cider. It may also be used to restart stuck fermentations. An excellent...

I have made about 12 batches of red wine with 8 grape varitals with Lalvin EC-1118 over the last year. Every batch has started quickley and fermented to completion with no problems. I do not sterilyze my equipment or use any chemicals. I start the must at about 75 degrees and let it find it's own temperature balance after that. This yeast is so vigorus that nothing strange seems to ever be able to get started. I scatter the yeast on the must as soon as I have in in the stainless soup kettle, let it float on top for 15 minutes and then stir it in. I always adjust my sugar for 15% alcohol. About brix 26. This will take awhile to complete fermentation. About 2-3 months due to the high sugar content, but the wine has all been great. So much better then any commercial wine I have tried that I no longer want to buy wine. I went to a wine tasting recently. These were $30-$40 dollar a bottle wines. They were so far inferior to what I make that they gaged me.Larry Dennis 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful Works good, leaves a taste behind, Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: 10 Packs of Lalvin Dried Wine Yeast EC 1118 (Misc.) This yeast works great but after filtering and clearing the wine it still has a yeast taste for a few days. Then it diminishes. The only thing I would like is a more accurate description of how much yeast to use per volume of liquid. |
