    Variable LOW_PITCH_RATEConst

    LOW_PITCH_RATE: 0.35

    An intentional under-pitch: 0.35 M cells/mL/°P.

    Roughly half the ale rate. Brewers pitch this low when they want yeast character: hefeweizen banana and clove, Belgian phenolics, and kveik, which is normally pitched thin and warm. Under-pitching is a legitimate technique for these beers, so we offer the rate, but it isn't the default for anything.
