DistilaMax® SR | Lallemand Craft Distilling Yeast IMCD

DistilaMax^® SR Yeast is selected on molasses for use in production of Rum and other molasses-based spirits

DistilaMax® SR has been selected by UNGDA (Union Nationale des Groupements de Distillateurs d’Alcool, France) in partnership with Lallemand.

DistilaMax SR can be used on sugar beet molasses, sugar beet juice and also on cane molasses

DistilaMax SR displays good osmotic stress resistance, performing well with high fermentable solids.

DistilaMax SR demonstrates a good balance of glucose / fructose uptake, as well as good stress resistance to sodium, organic acids and high temperatures.

• Temp Range 25°C – 36°C
• Stress Tolerant
• Short Lag Phase

Applications:

• DistilaMax® SR has been selected by UNGDA (Union Nationale des Groupements de Distillateurs d’Alcool, France) in partnership with Lallemand.
• DistilaMax SR can be used on sugar beet molasses, sugar beet juice and also on cane molasses.
• DistilaMax SR is positive for the RTM1 gene, making this strain tolerant to some of the inhibitory toxins that are
  present in molasses.
• DistilaMax SR displays good osmotic stress resistance, performing well on high solid matrices.
• DistilaMax SR demonstrates a good balance of glucose/ fructose uptake, as well as good stress resistance to sodium,
  organic acids and high temperatures.

Dosage:

• The optimal yeast dosage is variable according to individual distillery production processes.
• Fermentation of molasses: 0.40 – 0.60 grams per litre of wash or juice (dosage: 400 – 600 ppm)

Instructions for Use:

Lallemand Biofuels & Distilled Spirits recommends the rehydration of DistilaMax XP.

1. For rehydration, use a clean container. Do not use demineralized water.
2. Rehydrate the yeast in clean water (the water should be 10 times the weight of the yeast and at a temperature of 32°C – 36°C).
3. Suspend contents carefully by gently stirring and then wait for 15 – 20 minutes maximum (minimum 10 minutes) before moving onto the next step.
4. Add this preparation to the wash. If there is a temperature difference of more than 8°C between the wash to be inoculated and the rehydration solution, add some wash slowly into the rehydration solution to reduce the temperature difference.
5. Once the vacuum-sealed bag is open or broken, use yeast promptly.

Storage, Handling and Packaging:

• DistilaMax SR should be stored in a cool and dry area away from heat and direct sunlight for maximum stability.
• Shelf Life: 3 years from date of manufacture if vacuum-seal is not broken.
• 500g Foil
