Wine Yeast

Wine yeasts are added to wines to help maximize the fermentation process. Additionally, wine yeast is not only used to heartily produce the maximum amount of alcohol they can from the fruit, but also to produce alcohol with good flavor qualities. At E.C. Kraus we provide various kinds of yeast each from different parts of the world to add distinct flavors to your homemade wine. Each recipe will call for a different type of wine yeast which you can find on our online catalogue. Included in our selection of top quality wine yeasts are five types of Red Star Yeast, including Montrachet (neutral flavor), Premier Cuvee (for white wines), Pasteur Champagne (for sparkling wines), Cote de Blancs (general purpose yeast), and Red Pasteur (for full-bodied reds).
