White Labs Yeast & Fermentation

White Labs' FlexCell™ Process and Commercial PurePitch™ Packaging (1x3)

Uitzenddatum: Apr 10, 2014

Representing the first major innovation in yeast cultivation in more than 100 years, San Diego-based White Labs unveils its proprietary FlexCell propagation process, which minimizes its environmental footprint while ensuring the quality and purity commercial brewing customers expect. Instead of growing yeast in traditional stainless steel fermenters, the patent-pending FlexCell process uses a flexible container to propagate the yeast and then packages it in the same material, reducing the risk of contamination to create yeast that has never been exposed to the environment. By growing and packaging the yeast in the same container, the process also eliminates the need to transfer the yeast to a number of containers and ultimately into commercial packaging. By eliminating those steps, the process conserves a considerable amount of water, cleaners, electricity and plastic.
