Selecting the right yeast is key to crafting crisp, refreshing, and well-balanced cider. Hard cider yeast impacts fermentation speed, dryness, and overall flavor profile, allowing brewers to create anything from sweet, fruit-forward ciders to bone-dry, tannic styles.
Our Hard Cider Yeast collection includes a variety of liquid and dry strains from top brands like White Labs, Wyeast Laboratories, Lallemand, Mangrove Jack’s, and Red Star. Whether you prefer a clean, neutral yeast for a dry cider, a strain that enhances apple and fruit esters, or a yeast with high flocculation for clarity, we have options for every cider-making approach.
Each yeast strain is stored under strict temperature control with 24-hour monitoring to maintain peak viability. For best results, we recommend shipping liquid yeast with ice packs to help preserve yeast health during transit.
