Ale and lager yeasts, also known as the top-fermenting and bottom-fermenting yeasts, respectively, are the two main types of brewing yeasts used. Ale yeasts give rise to diverse beers but, in spite of the differences of the final product, most ale-brewing strains belong to Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

How do you use Safale yeast?
Sprinkle the yeast into 10 times its weight (115ml for 1 sachet) of sterile water or boiled wort at a temperature of 25 to 29°C (77°F to 84°F). Leave the yeast for 15 30 minutes before swirling the vessel and pitching into the wort.
What is Safale?
Safale US-05 is a dried American Ale strain with fermentation properties resembling that of Wyeast 1056 (American Ale) or White Labs WLP001 (California Ale). Sedimentation is low to medium, and final gravity is medium.
Whats the difference between Safale 04 and 05?
Both yeasts are cold-tolerant and fast. S-04 attenuates less and is more fruity/minerally than US-05 at low temps (58º F - 64º F). US-05 is much cleaner at moderate ale temps (65º F - 69º F).
How long does Safale yeast take to ferment?
Re: Safale US 05 fermentation length IME it takes aboot 2 days to get going and usually finishes all activity within 3- 5 days, fg 1.010-1.012.Jan 5, 2017
What does kveik yeast taste like?
A wonderfully unique Norwegian farmstead “kveik,” Hornindal presents a tropical flavor and aroma of fresh pineapple, mango and tangerine, which complement fruit-forward hops. Add even more dimension to “C” hops with a high fermentation temperature, intensifying aroma and fermentation speed. Ferments well at 90+° F.
What is the cleanest kveik yeast?

How long does kveik yeast last?
The slurry can survive a year in cold storage but to ensure good yeast health it is better to use the slurry within six months. I have found this rule useful in my home brewery and I heard it also from Sigmund Gjernes.
What yeast is used for brewing beer?
Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Can I use normal yeast for homebrew?
You can totally use baking yeast for brewing, as both yeasts (beer and baking) are different strains of the same species, Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Do I need special yeast to brew beer?
Yeast is crucial to brewing beer because it produces the carbonation and alcohol beer drinkers love. Without yeast, beer would be malty grain water with a side of hops. Yeast is vital to the brewing process because it turns sugars into carbon dioxide and alcohol. All yeast does this, even bread yeast.
