JY323 - Leicester
JY323 is a heritage English ale yeast strain. Used for traditional bitters with a focus on malt-driven clarity. JY323 produces low levels of esters, offering subtle hints of biscuit and faint fruit, complemented by minimal sulfur for a crisp, unadulterated finish. Its preference for high-mineral worts enhances malt sweetness and hop balance, making it a perfect fit for Ordinary Bitters, Best Bitters, and English Pale Ales. With high flocculation, JY323 generates a moderate fermentation head and settles quickly into a dense sediment, delivering a brilliantly clear beer that showcases the purity of classic English styles.
This is a heritage English yeast. High mineral worts are essential, and fermentation can be slow (7-14 days). Keep the temperature above 68F. Keep the gravity appropriate.
