LalBrew NovaLager™ is a true bottom fermenting Saccharomyces pastorianus hybrid from the novel Group III (Renaissance) lineage that has been selected to produce clean lager beers with distinct flavor characteristics and superior fermentation performance. LalBrew NovaLager™ is a robust lager strain with ideal characteristics for lager beer production including fast fermentations and high attenuation. The distinct avor pro le is very clean, slight esters over a wide temperature range. Through expression of a -glucosidase enzyme, LalBrew NovaLager™ can promote hop biotransformation and accentuate hop avor and aroma. This product is the result of the research and development work of Renaissance Bioscience Corp. (Vancouver BC, Canada) in partnership with Lallemand Brewing. LalBrew NovaLager™ was selected using classical and non-GMO breeding methods to obtain a novel Saccharomyces cerevisiae x Saccharomyces eubayanus hybrid strain that de nes a novel Group III (Renaissance) lager lineage that is distinct from any other traditional Saccharomyces pastorianus strains. This strain is a low VDK/diacetyl producer and utilizes patented technology from the University of California Davis (USA) to ensure that the strain will not produce hydrogen sul de (H2S) o - avors, therefore reducing the maturation time associated with lager beer production.

Wort Chillers and Thermometers
Wort Chillers and Thermometers are long term investments. It is important to chill your wort quickly. The quicker you chill it the stronger the cold break will be. You also need a good thermometer because high powered boiling changes more rapid temperature fluctuations.
SiphonsAuto-siphons are a great luxury item to have in your brew equipment. Once you have one you will never go without one again. Don't forget to use a heavy duty sanitizer to clean it since you don't want to replace it as often as hoses. A good sanitizer for that job is Five Star San.
If you are using Lallemand Novalager Brewing Yeast, you are getting ready to ferment some beer. Here's a link to our fermenter equipment.
HosesMany people reuse their hoses for far too long. Replacing your hoses often or even using as single use items is highly recommended with beer making.
FunnelsPouring your wort into a carboy can be tricky. Use a big funnel made just for the job. They even have different mesh screens to remove particles.
AirlocksAll that healthy yeast is going to make a lot of gas especially with the high activity of Your Lallemand Novalager Brewing Yeast. You'll be needing an airlock to let it out, and not let anything in. It is recommended to replace airlocks often. Because they never physically touch the beer, the sanitation risk is too often overlooked. Bacteria can spread without physical contact in a closed environment and plastic stubbornly harbors bacteria.
Yeast StartersMaking a yeast starter is a great way to avoid stuck fermentation and also get high yeast counts that allow the final cells to clean up after themselves, reducing off flavors and aromas. Higher populations means less yeast stress and less risk of off-flavors. They help make better beer and can be used with Your Lallemand Novalager Brewing Yeast. Use the right equipment to make the job easy. Flask, Foam Stopper, and Airlock.
