G'day all,

I keep hearing that saflager pumps out a rotten egg gas smell. My q is how bad is it? ie will it stink out my house and piss off the misses. My brew is in a laundry inside an apartment. Really want to brew a lager.

cheers and beers

If you can close the laundry door & open a window (if it has one) all should be well

Cheers

Hey morgs,

I might be stating the obvious, but any lager yeast will produce a sulphur smell. It's just a part of the lager yeasts.

Cheers,

Matty

I've got two saflager brews going at the moment and haven't had a sulphur smell. But my third brew, cultured from a Little Creatures stubbie had a very strong smell until I got the temperature down.

I've noticed that the H2S odour is much less pronounced in the S-23 than it is in the W34/70 and other liquid yeasts.
