CBC-1 Cask and Bottle Conditioning Dry Ale Yeast
Lallemand LalBrew® CBC-1 Cask and Bottle Conditioning Yeast
LalBrew® CBC-1™ is a cask and bottle conditioning yeast, with high resistance to alcohol and pressure. Its neutral flavor profile and inability to metabolize maltotriose preserve the original character of the beer through refermentation, and it settles into a tight mat at the bottom of the bottle or cask. It’s also an ideal strain for primary fermentation of dry ciders, mead, and hard seltzer, where it achieves high attenuation with clean, neutral flavor in simple sugar fermentations, given appropriate yeast nutrition.
Key benefits of LalBrew CBC-1™:
- Designed for cask and bottle conditioning
- High resistance to alcohol and pressure
- Neutral flavor profile that preserves the beverage's original character
- Ideal for primary fermentation of dry ciders, mead, and hard seltzer
Ideal Styles for LalBrew CBC-1™

CBC-1™ Description from the Manufacturer
"LalBrew CBC-1™ has been specifically selected from the Lallemand Yeast Culture Collection for Cask and Bottle Conditioning applications due to its high resistance to alcohol and pressure. LalBrew CBC-1™ has a neutral flavor profile and does not metabolize maltotriose, therefore the original character of the beer is preserved after refermentation. The yeast will settle and form a tight mat at the bottom of the bottle or cask. LalBrew CBC-1™ is also an ideal strain for primary fermentation of dry ciders, mead and hard-seltzer. For simple sugar fermentations with appropriate yeast nutrition, LalBrew CBC-1™ achieves high attenuation with a clean and neutral flavor profile."
