Troubleshooting - Frozen Yeast

What do I do if my yeast has frozen? 

If your yeast has arrived frozen or froze in your refrigerator, we do not recommend using it. Freezing without any cryoprotectants will impact the viability of the yeast culture.

If you are home brewing, you can potentially pitch the yeast into a starter and increase your viable cell count this way. Make sure to monitor the starter for a drop in specific gravity after 24-48 hours to verify the yeast is still viable. 

If you're brewing professionally, reach out to us and we will ensure you can meet your targets with healthy yeast.
