Mangrove Jack’s M05 Mead Yeast 10g

Description

Mangrove Jack’s M05 Mead Yeast 10g is a high ester-producing yeast strain developed for making all styles of mead. It produces fresh, floral esters and performs particularly well when fermented at cooler temperatures.

With very high attenuation and high flocculation, M05 provides strong fermentation performance across a wide temperature range. It also offers high alcohol tolerance, making it well suited to honey-based fermentations.

Mead Yeast with Fresh Floral Character

Mangrove Jack’s M05 helps complement the natural flavours and aromas of honey rather than overpowering them. Its fresh floral ester profile makes it suitable for traditional mead as well as fruit, spiced and other speciality mead styles.

For best results, ferment between 15–30°C. Cooler fermentation can help emphasise the strain’s fresh and floral ester character.

Using M05 Mead Yeast

Sprinkle the contents of the 10g sachet directly onto up to 17 L of must.

Honey is naturally low in some of the nutrients yeast needs for healthy fermentation. Therefore, Mangrove Jack’s recommends using a suitable yeast nutrient when fermenting honey with M05.

Our Vintner’s Harvest Wine Nutrient 100g provides additional yeast nutrition to support healthy fermentation when making mead.

Good yeast nutrition helps support strong yeast activity and reliable fermentation, allowing M05 to perform effectively throughout the fermentation process.
