Fermentation Time (Approximate)
Still Spirits Classic 6 Turbo Yeast can ferment across a range of temperatures. However, the temperature of your wash will affect how quickly fermentation finishes.
The following times provide a guide to expected fermentation performance:
| Fermentation Temperature | Approximate Time |
|---|---|
| 15°C | 9–10 days |
| 30°C | 4–5 days |
Warmer fermentation conditions generally reduce the time required. In comparison, cooler temperatures can extend the fermentation period.
Expected Yield (Approximate)
When using the Still Spirits T500 Reflux Condenser, expected spirit yields are:
- 6 kg Turbo Sugar: Approximately 3.6 litres at 93% ABV.
- 7 kg Dextrose: Approximately 3.8 litres at 93% ABV.
Therefore, your choice of sugar source can affect the expected spirit yield.
However, actual results may vary depending on fermentation conditions, equipment and distillation efficiency.
