Unlocking Yeast Potential — Exploring Hybridization for Superior Brewing Yeasts

“Hybridization” is a buzzing word; indeed, this technology allows for desirable characteristics of different yeasts to be combined into one chosen superior offspring. It can take a significant amount of time (years) to select that chosen one, but it is worth the wait. Ideally you would want to combine performance with the right flavor profile while avoiding undesirable characteristics. This natural method is classified as non-GMO and can therefore be used freely without GRAS approval and anywhere in the world.​
