Brewer notes

American Wheat is a liquid wheat culture from Omega (OYL-002). Fermentation character can show crisp and estery notes. Choose it when its fermentation profile fits the intended beer rather than substituting by attenuation alone. Reference guidance: attenuation guidance 74–78%, fermentation range about 14–23°C (58–74°F), alcohol tolerance around 10%. Treat temperature, attenuation and alcohol tolerance as strain guidance; wort composition, pitch health and fermentation management still affect the result.
