SafLager S-189 Lager Dry Yeast is a premium Saccharomyces pastorianus dry lager yeast developed by Fermentis for producing exceptionally clean, highly drinkable lagers with smooth malt character and reliable fermentation performance. Originating from Switzerland, this versatile strain delivers neutral flavor development, excellent attenuation, and outstanding clarity across a broad range of traditional lager styles. Each 11.5 g packet is designed to ferment approximately 5–8 gallons of wort and features Fermentis' convenient E2U™ (Easy to Use) technology for direct pitching or optional rehydration.
SafLager S-189 is selected for its ability to produce crisp lagers with minimal ester formation while preserving balanced malt expression. High flocculation promotes excellent clarification during fermentation, while strong attenuation creates dry, refreshing beers with smooth finishes. Its neutral fermentation profile makes it suitable for a variety of classic European lager styles where clean yeast character is essential.
This dry lager yeast features high flocculation, 80–84% attenuation, low total esters, and performs best between 53.6–64.4°F (12–18°C). It is ideal for brewing traditional lagers where clean fermentation, excellent drinkability, and crisp character are desired.
For best results, pitch directly into wort using Fermentis' E2U™ technology or rehydrate before pitching if preferred. Maintain fermentation temperatures between 53.6–64.4°F (12–18°C) to achieve the cleanest possible fermentation profile. Proper oxygenation and healthy fermentation practices will help maximize attenuation, clarity, and overall beer quality.
Produced by Fermentis, SafLager S-189 Lager Dry Yeast offers dependable fermentation, excellent clarity, and authentic lager performance. Its high attenuation, clean flavor profile, and reliable dry yeast convenience make it an outstanding choice for brewers producing crisp, balanced lagers with professional-quality results.
