Resulting in high-quality, rich and full-flavored beers, the Ringwood Ale strain is a particular yeast that needs to be treated well. Proper pitching rates and oxygenation can reduce chances of stress on this yeast, which has been known to produce diacetyl and ferment sluggishly when stressed. However, when given proper conditions, Ringwood Ale can produce beautifully complex beers where malt and fruity esters interlace to create beers of unparallelled quality. Beers made with Ringwood yeast often clear extremely well. A diacetyl rest is recommended when using Ringwood.
ICE PACK INCLUDED
We include complimentary ice packs with ALL liquid yeast orders (if required), but cannot guarantee that the ice packs will stay cold during transit, and thus the yeast can potentially be exposed to hot temperatures. We highly recommend ordering dry yeast during the hot summer months or if you are ordering from a warmer climate. Many times during the winter an ice pack is not needed so we make the determination based on current temperatures and the destination!
