Fermentis

Lille, France, September 2020

A yeast strain that waves away the challenges of traditional lager production.

This famous brewer’s yeast strain originates from the oldest brewery in the world, Weihenstephan, in Bavaria. SafLager™ W34/70 is used world-wide within the brewing industry and trusted to produce beautifully clean and neutral lagers.

The Fementis R&D team conducted extensive trials with this yeast strain that revealed extraordinary stability and robust performance in many different conditions. So much so that we affectionately refer to it as the “German stone”. We can tell you with great confidence that SafLager™ W34/70 is as solid as a rock.

It has the ability to ferment faster at higher temperatures without affecting the flavour. This makes it much easier for the modern brewer to produce traditional lagers more efficiently and without worrying about diacetyl.

You can trust SafLager™ W-34/70™ to do the work for you. This yeast strain, of great noble brewing heritage, allows you to brew a lager with good balance, clean flavours and highly drinkable. This yeast strain has also earned itself a E2U™ certification.
