Red Star Pasteur Red yeast
This is more of a mead related question, but since I used a wine strain...
Last night I pitched a packet of Red Star Pasteur Red yeast into a pyment mead with an original gravity of 1.110. How far down will Pasteur Red ferment? I've searched the web but could not find any info on this. By the way, this was a fast start to the ferment. I was mixing this pyment mead up while watching the pregame show for the Cubs and Braves game on Friday night. And by the late innings, with my Cubbies in control of the game, the mead was already fermenting.

Does Red Star have a wine yeast site? I went to their site, or so I think I did, but the only yeast info that they had was for baking. I did a Google search, and found links that pointed to the same site, but the URLs no longer worked.

To my knowledge, Red Star does not maintain a separate wine yeast site, or even mention that product line on their main website.

Correction (of my previous post in this thread): Universal Foods has sold Red Star to Lesaffre, and they do have a wine yeast site now: http://www.lesaffreyeastcorp.com/win...ification.html

Red Star Pasteur Red yeast
The Oregon Brew Crew is in the midst of completing an experiment on mead
where we took 30 gallons of 1.110 mead and split it between six different yeasts. The Red Star finished at 1.004. Our tasting is scheduled for early Nov. -Danno -- email me at s_danno at msn dot com --------------------------------------------------------- "Craig" wrote in message .10...

When did you start these meads? I hope you are posting the results in full
on this site and on the Mead site. Ray "danno" wrote in message ...

Our goal is to publish the results. Where, I don't know as I'm not the one
running the experiment. Being a homebrew club, Zymurgy will be our likely target. I will commit to posting the results here and in the mead and brewing NG's. How about I throw out a few more data points: Cotes des Blancs finished @ 1.004 1056 American Ale finished @ 1.012 Sweat Mead finished @ 1.000 Portwine finished @ 1.020 71B-1122 finished @ 1.018 -Danno -- email me at s_danno at msn dot com --------------------------------------------------------- "Ray" wrote in message ...
