Saccharomyces bayanus – isolated by IOC. Because of its competitive factor and its ability to ferment equally well at low temperatures EC-1118 is one of the most widely used yeast in the world.

The fermentation characteristics of extremely low foam, low volatile acid and low H2S production make this strain an excellent one for barrel fermentations.

EC- 1118 ferments well over a wide temperature range 10 – 30 º C. Good flocculation with compact lees and a relatively neutral flavor and aroma contribution are also properties of the EC-1118. High osmotic and alcohol (up to 18%) tolerance

Good for late -harvest and restarting stuck fermentations.
