New Diamond Lager Yeast

Post by LouieMacGoo »

It seems like Danstar/Lallemand is really stepping up their game with some new dry yeast options. This one being the latest addition.
Diamond Lager Beer Yeast

Diamond lager yeast gives you true lager yeast performance together with the convenience & consistency of dry yeast, making Diamond the perfect choice for the full range of lager beers.

The Diamond yeast strain originated in Germany and is being used by commercial breweries around the world for production of beer in a wide variety of brewery sizes and environments. Diamond yeast has been produced using advanced techniques developed by Lallemand to maintain the highest standards in fermentation and flavor production.

Anyone use this yet? I have 2 packets going into a Bock-ish Lager this weekend. Says it's a true well known German Lager strain. My guess is it's close to or a version of Saflager 34/70

Not me...I usually use 34/70. I'm not sure I can get this locally. I'll have to look.

Funny, a little box from MoreBeer arrived at my door with some of this in it today.

So, you will have a review once I get to using it.
