PurePitch® Next Generation

PurePitch® Next Generation, an evolution of White Labs’ PurePitch® – the most superior and consistent yeast on the market – has been made even better with new packaging powered by FlexCell® Technology for ease of use and a pitch rate resulting in a foolproof fermentation every time.

Why PurePitch® Next Generation

White Labs' goal in creating PurePitch® Next Generation for Homebrewers was to provide a product that will allow hobbyists and small-scale brewers a convenient and modular package to pitch a consistent 7.5 million cells/mL, a commercially recommended pitching rate for standard ale ranges. The same package has proven to be an optimization to PurePitch® for larger professional brewers for over a year.
