Fermentis SafSour LB 1™ 100g
SKU: BZZZ9770
SafSour LB 1™ is a heterofermentative lactic acid bacteria. It has been selected by Fermentis specifically for its ability to provide a precise acidity related to the combined production of lactic and acetic acids. SafSour LB 1™ also reveals a neutral aromatic profile, respecting the aromatic signature of the yeast in the final product. We recommend it to produce Gose, Berliner Weisse and many other balanced sour beers.
• Acidifies non-hopped wort within 30h–48h at a temperature of 89.6°F +/- 9°F (32°C +/-5°C) .
• As a heterofermentative lactic acid bacteria, SafSour LB-1 produces lactic acid and acetic acid.
• SafSour LB-1 presents a low tolerance towards iso alpha acids (half of growth is inhibited, IC50 of 10 ppm).
• Typically reaches a final pH of 3.6–3.9
An oxygenation rate of 13 ppm helps achieve a balanced acetic/lactic profile.
