MAISON: The Go-To Belgian Yeast for Complex Fruit, Clove, and Spice

MAISON is your next go-to Belgian yeast strain, designed perfectly for a wide range of Belgian-style beers, including Blondes, Tripels, and Quads. This versatile strain allows you to dial in your desired profile: robust and pronounced at high temperatures, or subtle and nuanced at lower temperatures, consistently delivering professional-grade results.

🥂 Styles & Flavour Profile: Dial in Your Belgian Character

MAISON provides a complex, moderately sweet malt background complemented by rich fermentation notes of fruit, clove, and spice, making it a true workhorse for Belgian brewing.

Temperature-Driven Flavour Control

• Robust Flavours (High Temp): Fermenting near 24­­­°c (75°f) yields pronounced notes of fruit, clove, and spice alongside a moderately sweet malt character.
• Subtle Nuance (Low Temp): Fermenting near 18°c (64°f) showcases the same characteristics but in a subtler, more nuanced profile.

Ideal for Brewing

MAISON’s versatility covers the entire spectrum of Belgian styles:

• Belgian Blondes & Witbiers
• Dubbels
• Tripels
• Quads

🔬 Performance & Technical Specifications

MAISON combines a wide fermentation range with high attenuation and superior cell counts, ensuring reliable and consistent performance across both homebrew and craft brew settings.

Fermentation & Pitching Details

• Fermentation Range: Optimal performance is between 18-24°C (64-75°F), with characteristics shifting throughout this range.
• Attenuation: High attenuation rate of approximately 80-90%.
• Alcohol Tolerance: Robust tolerance up to 12% ABV.
• Flocculation: Low to medium.
• Direct Pitching: Designed to be sprinkled directly onto the surface of your wort with no rehydration necessary, ensuring ease of use.

Packaging & Dosage

One sachet is enough to treat a single 19-23L batch.

When calculating for larger batches, use at a rate of 0.5-1g per Liter. We recommend rounding up by one full sachet rather than measuring out the yeast exactly.

MAISON bricks are designed to provide maximum cell count for superior pitching rates and reliable fermentation every time.

Calculation for Larger Batches

• Use at a rate of 0.5-1g per Liter (approx. 50-100 g/hL)
  
• For high-gravity Belgian ales, dosage may be increased to 2–3 g/L
