This yeast can be pitched directly; However, if rehydration is preferred via Lallemand instructions: Sprinkle the yeast on the surface of 10 times its weight in clean, sterilized water at 30-35°C (86-95°F) for ale yeasts and 25-30°C (77-86°F) for lager yeasts. Do not use wort, or distilled or reverse osmosis water, as loss in viability may result. Stir gently, leave undisturbed for 15 minutes, then stir to suspend yeast completely. Leave it to rest for 5 more minutes at 30-35°C (86-95°F) for ale yeasts and 25-30°C (77-86°F) for lager yeasts.
