Thiols are compounds found abundantly in malt and hops, that give off huge tropical notes of grapefruit, passion fruit, and guava. The problem is that these thiols are locked away; inaccessible to homebrewers using traditional ingredients. Now, thanks to science and the geniuses at Omega Yeast, those huge tropical notes can now burst forward in your homebrew creations. Using a mix of malt, certain hop varieties, Phantasm Thiol Powder, and Thiolized® yeast from Omega, you can amp up the juiciness of just about any beer you can think of!
Phantasm and Tholized® yeasts are relatively new, so we worked with the team at Omega and Phantasm to come up with three beer kits, specifically formulated to get the most out of these thiol boosting ingredients. Try them out today, and get that juicy homebrew you’ve been looking for!

If you’re rehydrating beer yeast, it’s quick and easy to ensure a perfect ferment by adding FermStart by CellarScience™. FermStart is a concentrated micronutrient blend that helps yeast during the critical phase in which they transition from dried and dormant back into healthy and active. FermStart is added to your rehydration water so that your yeast absorbs the nutrients as they absorb the water. When gravities exceed 15° Plato or 1.060 starting gravity, it is recommended to rehydrate your yeast. To ensure a perfect ferment that reaches its full flavor potential, rehydrate your yeast with FermStart.
How Much?
FermStart is a super concentrated formula, which is very convenient when you are rehydrating large amounts of yeast. Use 1 gram of Fermstart for every 4 grams of yeast. We offer some suggested ranges for the amount of water to use below.
Examples:
12g yeast – Add 3g FermStart to roughly 50ml of water
500g yeast – Add 125g FermStart to roughly 1500 ml of water
The Science of How it Works
FermStart is rich in readily assimilable amino acids, sterols, vitamins, and natural glutathione. Readily assimilable means that the size of the molecules present in FermStart are extremely small and easily absorbed by the yeast cell. This is obtained by centrifuge and allows FermStart to be extremely concentrated and not contain filler.
The availability of readily assimilable amino acids allows the yeast cell to skip the step in which amino acids would be synthesized within the cell. This saved energy is instead directed into multiplication. Faster yeast cell multiplication means a faster start allowing your yeast to out-compete wild yeast. Wild yeast have unknown flavors and fermentation behavior so it is important to give the yeast you selected the best chance to dominate the fermentation.
Sterols help the cell membrane regain and maintain elasticity helping to ensure a perfect start and continued performance throughout the fermentation. The strong cell membrane helps ensure that the yeast can survive and complete alcoholic fermentation under tough conditions.
Glutathione is a very special natural antioxidant and detoxifier made up of three amino acids cysteine, glutamate, and glycine. It is extremely important for maintaining intracellular health by preventing damage to cellular components during the very oxidative process of rehydration.

More Info
Highlighted Features
High-Precision and Wide Range: AMIR kitchen scale built with high precision sensor system, provides you with instant and accurate results from 0.05 g to 500 g; Easy to clean and use, make it an ideal to measure jewelry, medicine, and cooking ingredients with refined accuracy
Superior Quality Materials: The Smart Digital Pocket Scale is crafted to be strong, accurate, fast, and user-friendly; Constructed with a high-quality stainless steel platform and ABS plastic frame, this digital kitchen scale is durable and easy to clean
Smart Button Functions: The "PCS" function enables you pieces counting such as pins, beads, screws; The "T" function will provide a net weight; The "M" function helps you choose the proper unit; The switch time can be set to 60", 120" and 180"; Besides, it can alert users for low battery power, overload, and uneven surface placement
Stylish Design and Space Saver: Minimalistic and elegant design, the food scale's mini and compact size (Product Dimensions: 4" x 5" x 3/4"; Platform Dimensions: 4"x4") takes up minimal space on your desk, makes it a pro pocket scale makes it easy for carrying
Multi-Functions: Built with a clear blue back-lit LCD screen, the cooking scale can convert measurement results between in g, tl, oz, ct, and gn in seconds; Comes with two trays (13 cm, 10 cm), which can be used as protectors or scale trays. Meet your demand of measuring different things
What Does Tare Mean? Tare allows you to subtract the weight of the container you’re using to get a true weight of the contents. Add your empty container to the scale and press the tare button. This zeros out the scale. Now add the thing you’re weighing and the scale displays just the weight of the contents of your container. In my opinion the tare function is essential for any good homebrewing scale.
What I like about this scale... I like the high resolution (1/100th gram) given the relatively large capacity (500 grams, about 17.6 ounces, or just over a pound). I like that it has the requisite (in my opinion) tare feature, that it has a stainless top and that it uses easy to source AAA batteries [Search AmazonBasics Batteries]. Given the specs of this scale, it should work for weighing hops, water salts, smaller amounts of specialty grains and other brewing ingredients.
