The Next Generation of PurePitch® is finally here with key advancements to make your brew day easier. One of the most important is that PurePitch® is NOW AT 2X THE PITCH!
In our decades of research and working with brewing partners, we know that having a precise pitching rate is the key to a successful fermentation for the best beer every time.
With PurePitch® Next Generation, we have standardized the cell concentration and created a simple, modular design to give you the optimal pitching rate.
Our recommendation of pitching a consistent 7.5 million cells/mL is a commercially professional recommended pitching rate for standard ale ranges.
The same package has proven to be an optimization to PurePitch® for larger professional brewers for over a year.
Higher Viability and Better Shelf-Life Lets You Pitch WheneverBecause we never stop, PurePitch® Next Generation has an improved proprietary film designed specifically for White Labs and allows for one-way off-gassing to reduce product inflation and deliver higher yeast health and longer shelf life.
White Labs is the industry leader in quality with the same quality and care taken for every culture, including proprietary qPCR methods (developed with Invisible Sentinel) for higher limits of detection.
With 38 quality checkpoints for every single strain, you can be assured that all products released from White Labs have passed rigorous tests to ensure the highest viability and purity at the time of QC release.
PurePitch® Next Generation packaging improves yeast performance:
As part of our intensive quality control procedures, we routinely monitor the viability of our strains over time. We ensure that yeast leaves our facilities above 95% cell viability and we have seen that yeast stays highly viable (over 90% on average) for up to 6 months from date of production release!
The long shelf-life and sustained viability mean that you can confidently pitch any White Labs culture within the use-by date printed on the package and get a successful, healthy fermentation.
Consistency is key! Consistent Yeast growth = Consistent Beer Flavor. From fermentation, yeast consumes fermentable sugars into carbon dioxide and ethanol. But they also produce over 500 different flavor and aroma compounds in the beer. Different Pitch rates can lead to different problems!
Changes in pitching rate can affect
We created PurePitch® Next Generation Homebrew for ease of use for you! Use the entire pouch for a Professional recommendation of an Ale Pitch rate (0.75 million cells/mL) per 5 gallons. Or aseptically use some of the pouches for a starter and save some for later use up until the best-by date. There are times when you may want or need to make a yeast starter, such as using an older package or brewing a bigger beer.
