Wyeast West Yorkshire Ale Yeast [1469]

Introducing the Wyeast Activator!

For over 35 years, the Wyeast Activator has been the only product that "proofs" yeast and shortens lag time before it hits your wort. Each Activator package contains an internal nutrient packet that, when smacked, releases its contents directly into the yeast slurry — revitalizing the cells and jumpstarting their metabolism.

This process generates CO2, causing the package to swell and serving as a built-in viability and vitality test. While activating the package prior to inoculation is beneficial, it is not required as your yeast will perform reliably either way.

Consistent, Reliable Cell Count
Every Wyeast Activator package contains a minimum of 100 billion live yeast cells in a liquid slurry, packaged under optimal conditions for storage while maintaining the ability to deliver rapid and complete fermentation.

The reliable cell count across all Wyeast products ensures you are pitching the same amount of yeast every time thus eliminating the guesswork and avoiding the common issues associated with over or under pitching.

Insulated mailers help keep your yeast cool for a bit longer, offering peace of mind during shipping. They can safely hold up to 4 yeast and ice packs. If you're concerned, especially in warmer weather, this is your best option. However, in extreme heat, extended cooling can't be guaranteed.
