Optimal temp

48–57°F
The range where this strain ferments cleanly, without throwing off-flavors. Most brewers pitch near the low end.
Flocculation
Medium
How readily the yeast clumps together and drops clear once fermentation winds down.
Alcohol tolerance

The rough ABV ceiling where the yeast stresses out and stops fermenting.
Genetic traits
Phenolics
POF−
Ferments clean
Phenolically clean (POF-negative). No clove or spice, so malt, esters, and hops come through unmasked. The norm for American and British ales and most lagers.
Diastatic
STA-1−
Not diastatic
Does not carry the STA1 (diastaticus) gene. It attenuates normally, with no diastaticus over-attenuation or gushing risk.
