For cold fermentation, White Labs generally recommends higher pitch rates than warm ale fermentations. Use a yeast starter or multiple packs when the batch gravity, volume, or fermentation temperature calls for it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhite Labs specifically noted that WLP826 is a strong fit for lagers and pairs well with \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/socalbrewingsupply.com\/products\/brewzyme-d-enzyme-wle4900\" title=\"White Labs Brewzyme D\"\u003eWhite Labs Brewzyme D\u003c\/a\u003e, which can help reduce diacetyl and support a cleaner lager profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOur Commitment to Yeast Health\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt SoCal Brewing Supply, liquid yeast is kept under monitored cold storage before shipment or local pickup.
