CellarScience® VELO Dry Yeast 15g | Specialty Ale | Premium Beer Yeast

VELO is a next-generation ale yeast meticulously isolated and refined from a Norwegian mixed culture renowned for its resilience and speed. Through extensive propagation and selection trials, this unique strain was curated for clean fermentation, rapid performance, and exceptional flavor neutrality. The result is a yeast that performs with remarkable consistency across a wide range of beer styles from hop-forward IPAs and crisp pseudo-lagers to clean hard seltzers delivering a brilliantly dry, smooth finish in record time.

• Lightning-Fast Fermentation: Completes primary fermentation rapidly, reducing tank residency and accelerating production cycles.

• Clean & Neutral Profile: Produces minimal ester or phenol expression, emphasizing malt and hop balance while maintaining an exceptionally neutral finish.

• Extreme Temperature Flexibility: Ferments cleanly between 60–94°F (16–34°C) with minimal off-flavors, eliminating the need for tight temperature control.

• Pressure-Tolerant Performance: Capable of fermenting under pressures up to 12 PSI, ideal for closed-system or spunding fermentations.

• Hop-Friendly & Adaptable: Accentuates hop brightness in modern IPAs while maintaining a refined, rounded profile in low-IBU or malt-forward styles.

• High Attenuation & Alcohol Tolerance: Attenuation range 75–83%, with alcohol tolerance up to 10% ABV when paired with a full CellarScience nutrient regimen, ensuring a clean finish even in higher-gravity fermentations.

• Medium to High Flocculation: Exhibits strong natural settling behavior, leading to rapid clarification post-fermentation and reducing the need for filtration or finings. Despite its robust flocculation, VELO maintains excellent suspension during active fermentation, ensuring full attenuation before dropping bright.

• Thermotolerant Metabolism: Originating from a Norwegian lineage, VELO stores trehalose as a reserve carbohydrate, helping it maintain clean performance under high-temperature fermentation stress.

• Applications: Clean ales and pseudo-lagers Hop-forward IPAs Session ales and pale ales Hard seltzers and experimental ferments

• High Cell Count: 15g per sachet (over 36% more than standard 11g dry yeast packs)

Dosage:
One sachet is enough to treat 19 to 23L (5–6 gallon) batch. When calculating for larger batches, use at a rate of 2–3 grams per gallon of wort. We recommend rounding up by one full sachet rather than measuring out the yeast exactly.

Like all CellarScience yeasts, RØKKAR offers professional-grade performance for both homebrewers and craft brewers, delivering exceptional quality at an unbeatable value.
