Great yeast for mead
Been brewing for a few months now and this is a great yeast! I used an EC118 strain and among to switch back to this because of speed and clarity.

Great yeast
Kept my mead going for a long while to finish, then the yeasts kept going after 14 ABV, so did it's job.

It definitely ferments
18 lbs of strawberries. 5 pounds of sugar. 7 gallon carboy. I just kept giving it more sugar until the yeast died. Delightfully enjoyable with heavy smuckers jam notes at the end.

QUALITY YEAST! GREAT FOR BEGINNERS WINE MAKERS
I'm new to wine making and Red Star Yeast let me know immediately it was working hard to make my first batches of wine great! Bubbles everywhere!! (Not too much to overflow - Yeah!) Tested out at 13%. I am doing a second fermentation, and the yeast was still active and strong! Can't wait to see the sparkling wine end results! Thank you for a Quality Yeast! Happy Customer

First time winemaker
Ok don’t judge me but I made wine with this using frozen grape juice. I had never made wine before but thought it would be fun to try. I found a welches grape juice wine recipe so used that. Can’t find welches anymore so used the store brand Concord grape juice. The wine is currently in bottles to age a little. Came out pretty good and wasn’t hard to do.

Does A Perfect Job
I have used Red Star Wine Yeast products in the past, but this is the first time using this variety. It performed very very well, and will likely become my first choice in wine yeasts from now on. It mixed well and performed the proper fermentation, like all their products. They make it easy for you, with the perfectly packaged amount for exacting results. I used it with Cabernet Sauvignon, but I can also see it being used successfully for Merlot or Tempranillo. Thank you Red Star for yet another great product.

It does the job.
I may have gotten an off batch, but it did brew well enough.
