Angel BF16 Lager Yeast

Angel BF16 is a classic Swiss lager yeast formulated for a wide range of lager and pilsen beers with quick start fermentation and high attenuation. It has an excellent fermentation performance, and the ability to produce a clean, bright profile with minimal diacetyl and refreshing floral notes.

Fermentation Range:
50–68°F (10–20°C)
Recommended range for cleanest profile: 50–59°F (10–15°C)

Usage Rate:
0.5–1.5 g/L depending on wort gravity and fermentation temperature
Typical pitch rate: 50–150 g/hL; increase up to 300 g/hL for high-gravity or stressed fermentations

Rehydration Instructions:
For best results, rehydrate yeast in clean water at 72–86°F (22–30°C) for 10–20 minutes before pitching. Gradually adjust to wort temperature and pitch within 30 minutes to maintain yeast viability.
