DistilaMax® AG was selected in Mexico on Agave tequilana (blue agave) juice using Tequila production conditions. DistilaMax AG has the ability to ferment fructose well and to work on a wide pH range. This results in good fermentation kinetics with […]

DistilaMax® XP has been selected especially for its ability to ferment maltose, maltotriose and other sugars in malted grain feedstock. DistilaMax® XP displays a good temperature tolerance and performs well at temperatures up to 36°C. DistilaMax® XP exists worldwide in dry […]

DistilaMax® MW has been selected especially for its ability to ferment maltose, maltotriose and other sugars of malted barley feedstock. DistilaMax MW displays a good alcohol tolerance and performs very well up to 15% v/v. DistilaMax MW is recommended for […]

DistilaMax® GW is an active dry yeast and is recommended for use in the production of grain Whisky by fermentation of wort made from wheat or maize. It contains a selected strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae distillers’ yeast in a highly […]

Widely used in Scotland, DistilaMax NT is recommended for use in the production of whisky, by fermentation of wort made from malted barley or grain feedstock. DistilaMax NT produces a congener profile that is well-suited to malted barley whisky such […]

DistilaMax® CN is a natural strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae isolated by the Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais in Brazil. DistilaMax® CN, due to its ability to work well on fresh sugar cane-juice and cane molasses is recommended in the production […]

DistilaMax® RM has been selected by INRA (Institut National de la Recherche Agronomique, France) in partnership with Lallemand. DistilaMax RM is a yeast isolated in a tropical region and demonstrates good tolerance to high fermentation temperatures. DistilaMax RM has been […]

DistilaMax® SR has been selected by UNGDA (Union Nationale des Groupements de Distillateurs d’Alcool, France) in partnership with Lallemand. DistilaMax SR displays good osmotic stress resistance, performing well with high fermentable solids. DistilaMax SR demonstrates a good balance of glucose/ fructose […]

DistilaMax® TQ has been selected especially for its ability to ferment glucose and fructose in high-stress conditions. DistilaMax® TQ has the killer factor K2, enabling the yeast to outcompete wild yeast in the fermentation. DistilaMax® displays good temperature tolerance and […]

DistilaMax® LS has a short lag phase and a fast fermentation rate in a wide pH range (3.25 – 5.3) DistilaMax® LS  displays a good temperature tolerance (18°C – 32°C), it is this aspect that makes this strain a reference […]

DistilaMax® HT is an active dry yeast for use in many types of beverage alcohol fermentations and is especially suited for glucose based feedstocks (most grain and starch-based mashes). DistilaMax® HT is recommended for use in the production of Vodka, […]

Ask us how we can propagate your own strain and provide it back to you in a preferred format. This enables you to divert more of your carbohydrates to alcohol production rather than yeast production, while maintaining the heritage and […]
