I want to buy bulk but dont want to find out they al need using by the end of the year. Thanks** A: Julia - thank you for your question. We work directly with Lallemand, hence our yeasts are always fresh! On average, our yeasts have 1 to 2 years of expiration left. Our current batch of 71B expires January 2026. So you will have plenty of time to use these packets. As well, Lalvin yeasts are very robust and many costumers keeep using them past their expiry date. You can extend the yeast ability to ferment by keeping them on your refrigerator or making sure it never exceeds 15c temperature. Hope this information is useful! ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for higher strength abv and keeps fruit flavours *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 22 April 2025* I normally use the lalvin 118 but decided to give this a try after reading about it helping retain more flavour and gain higher abv.It's easy to use. If you add to a starter, make sure temp is 30-35C. The label says to make it a touch warmer but i found it was a bad start. Maybe too warm. It is picky about nutrients too. So make sure you do add yeast nutrients to your batch and will take off after 24 hours.I used this for a batch of Mead SG indicted a potential abv of 12% and it fermented completely to a sg of 0. Much faster and had more flavour than the usual 118 i ised before. It won't be to everyones preference. But well worth atry.If you aren't using it anytime soon store the sachets in the fridge to keep the yeast good.Good quality and value. Recommended.thank you for reading my review. I hope you found it useful ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good product *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 7 September 2025* Used it to make cider. Working well ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect fermentation *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 26 September 2026* Fermented really well. Takes probably longer than average to ferment but no off flavours or aromas were produced, which is rare for the type of homebrewing I’m doing.
