PIKA FastOrange® Wild Yeast Ready to use Tubes – 24 Pack: PI-2036-15

Brewery Microbial Testing Rapid detection of beer spoilage organisms – no prep required.

Target wild yeasts like Saccharomyces diastaticus with confidence.

PIKA FastOrange® Wild Yeast Tubes are designed for the specific detection of beer-spoiling wild yeasts, including Saccharomyces diastaticus and Brettanomyces. These spoilage yeasts pose serious risks to packaged beer quality, causing over-carbonation, gushing, and off-flavors.

The media is formulated to inhibit brewer’s yeast, ensuring that only wild yeast organisms are detected. With no preparation required, these ready-to-use tubes streamline routine quality control, making wild yeast monitoring simple and efficient.

The tubes contain a yellow broth, and interpretation is based on an increase in turbidity. When turbidity increases, it indicates the presence of wild yeast activity—providing brewers with a simple, effective solution for routine quality control in the brewery environment.


Why Choose FastOrange®?

Early detection of beer spoilage organisms helps reduce the risk of:

  • Over-carbonation

  • Hazy or off-flavoured beer

  • Costly product recalls

  • Equipment recontamination
