Technical Requirement

Active Temperature Control Required. This strain (OYL-071) requires precise sub-ambient cooling for clean results. Fermenting above 72°F will produce esters and diacetyl.

BOTTOM-FERMENTED LAGER
Equipment Prerequisites
Fermentation Chamber
Capable of holding 68–72°F (20–22°C) continuously for 2+ weeks
Digital Temperature Controller
e.g. Inkbird ITC-308 or Ranco — ±1°F precision required for OYL-071
Patience (26+ Days)
Allow full fermentation schedule to complete — rushing compromises finish
Increased Pitch Rate
Lager yeast requires 2× standard pitch rate — use 2 packs or prepare a 2L starter
