a thread focused on the discussion of Cosmic Punch, a GMO yeast that can unbind bound thiols.
Introducing Cosmic Punch™: A Thiol-Boosting Version of British V (OYL-011)
Genetically Modified (GM) Yeast Strains: Unlocking Bound Hop Thiols and Engineering Targeted Fermentation Characteristics
to date, most discussion of cosmic punch has occurred in the "Northeast style IPA" recipe thread, starting on page 374 through 380, then kicks up again on 384 for a few more pages.
i currently have a pack spinning in a 4L starter. hope to brew this weekend and will split it between two 5-gal ferments with different dry-hops. i will be trying mash-hopping for the first time, and i'll be using hops high in thiols throughout (citra, mosaic, simcoe, cascade, hallertau blanc, etc.). i will report back with my experience.
