SafAle K-97 German Ale Yeast is a clean, top-fermenting strain that delivers crisp, delicately fruity beers with an exceptionally smooth mouthfeel. Ideal for German-style ales, it’s a favorite among homebrewers for its reliability, subtle esters, and excellent sedimentation.

Technical Details:

  • Flocculation: Medium to High — forms a tight, compact sediment for easy racking.
  • Attenuation: Medium to High — typically reaches 80–84% for a well-attenuated beer.
  • Alcohol Tolerance: Up to 9–11% ABV.
  • Fermentation Temperature: Optimal range is 12–22°C (54–72°F), with cooler temps recommended for Kölsch and Altbier.
  • Usage: Pitch directly into wort or rehydrate for maximum vitality.
  • Ideal Beer Styles: Kölsch, Düsseldorf Altbier, Blonde Ales, and other light European ales.
Pro Tip: Patience pays off! SafAle K-97 tends to hang in suspension for a bit—but give it time or cold crash, and you’ll be rewarded with superb clarity and that hallmark crisp, German finish.
