Comes in the Wyeast Activator™ (smack pack pouch) that “proofs” the yeast and shortens lag time when it hits your wort. Activator™packages include an internal packet which, when smacked, releases its contents into the yeast slurry and revitalizes the cells. The available sugars and nutrients initiate the culture’s metabolism which in turn generates CO₂ and causes swelling of the package, serving as a viability and vitality test as well. Although beneficial, cultures do not need to be activated prior to inoculation.
