  • I brewed up 10 gallons of a Mexican Lager with corn and split it into 2 fermenters. I fermented 1 with Diamond Lager yeast from Lallemand and the other with Nova Lager and served it to some friends and family. I'll be honest, I couldn't tell the difference, they were both good! You should totally try it out for yourself....cheers!!!

    I think the introduction of Novalager yeast is great for home brewers, especially beginners. The ability to brew a lager quickly and to experiment with tastes at warmer temperatures is great too. Definitely a game changer and there's definitely a place for it. However, my limited (1 brew) experience tells me that while the lager was good it did throw Ale flavours and doesn't seem to give you quite that clean crisp clear lager taste as say diamond does. Only my view so far but early days yet, I'll try it again sure.

    Great video! It is nice to know that you can make a solid lager with NovaLager at 65F, vs Diamond at 55F.

    Haven't done any comparison but did do a few nova lagers at around 75F under pressure and they came out very good. Cheers.

    What a timely video. I’ve been brewing with Diamond Lager a good bit lately and I just branched out with Nova Lager on my last brew day to see how it does in a Porter.

    I brewed all my beer last year using Nova lager very impressive. I found 16c to 18c best cleanest taste. Very fruity at 12c.

    I have used them both and I also prefer the nova because of the speed and temperature capabilities. Mash on!

    Very well done! I am trying to remember if I've ever used Nova Lager, but I can tell you that Diamond Lager has been a champ and always comes out really nice and smooth, especially for a Mexican Lager.

    I have been searching (to no avail) to determine if NovaLager continues to ferment in the lager stage. It is my belief that normal lager yeasts continue to be "active" in the cellar. I want to cold crash NovaLager, but I am afraid of sending it to the cellar while it might still be active. The yeast might die at lager temperatures...

    I would like to try novalager sode by side with the same recipe and different fermentation temps as ive only done 18c so far and it has produced what i would consider to be a clean ale, not a lager. W3470 for me produces a more lager-like beer when fermenting at 18c which is the warmest ive gone without pressure for a lager yeast
