How We Store and Ship Yeast
All liquid yeast at SoCal Brewing Supply is stored under strict refrigeration with 24-hour temperature monitoring to maintain viability. For added protection during shipping, we recommend including an ice pack with your order.
Note: Ice packs may arrive melted—this is normal. Their purpose is to help buffer temperature swings during transit, not to remain frozen.
