Sprinkle yeast directly on wort surface in CCT 1. Fill CCT with wort 21 29°C (Lager or Ale range) 3. Fill fermenter with wort at fermentation temperature Concentration Rehydrate the dried yeasts in 10 times their weight in different media* Time 45 min. Agitation 1. Without agitation (WA) : the yeast is placed on liquid surface and rehydration is realized without agitation. 2. Moderate agitation (MA) : the yeast is placed on liquid surface, rehydration is realized without agitation during 15 min. and after the agitation is maintained at 100 rpm. 3. Violent agitation (VA) : the yeast is placed in a sterile flask, the medium is poured on the yeast and a violent agitation is realized every 2 or 3 min.
