Specialized Yeast & Nutrient Blend for Clean, Crisp Hard Seltzers
Mangrove Jack’s Hard Seltzer Yeast & Nutrient is a purpose-built fermentation solution designed specifically for crafting hard seltzers with a clean, neutral flavor and aroma profile. This 25g sachet combines a high-performing yeast strain with a proprietary nutrient mix, ensuring a complete and efficient fermentation of sugar-based washes. The result is a crystal-clear, neutral-tasting alcohol base ready for flavoring and carbonation.
Unlike traditional beer or cider fermentations, hard seltzer bases lack the essential nutrients found in malted grains or fruit juices. This blend addresses that gap, providing the necessary vitamins, trace elements, and minerals to support healthy yeast activity. The yeast strain included is selected for its high attenuation and flocculation properties, delivering a dry finish and excellent clarity without the need for additional fining agents.
Whether you're a homebrewer venturing into the world of hard seltzers or a commercial producer seeking consistency and quality, Mangrove Jack’s Hard Seltzer Yeast & Nutrient offers a reliable and straightforward solution. Its user-friendly application and dependable results make it a staple for producing hard seltzers that meet the growing demand for this refreshing beverage category.
