LalBrew CBC-1 11g - Cask & Bottle Conditioning Yeast

CBC-1 is the specialist for the last step: a conditioning yeast pitched at bottling or casking to carbonate beer reliably — even high-alcohol beer where the original yeast has given up. Neutral flavour, high alcohol tolerance, fast and complete refermentation.

This is the insurance policy for bottle-conditioned barleywines, quads and anything above 8% ABV, and the fix for a batch that's been sitting on cold crash so long you doubt the yeast count. Pitch with your priming sugar; CBC-1 eats exactly what you give it and nothing of the beer's character.
