Compatible yeast strains are easily identifiable by the grey Easy-To-Open Target Disc on the side of the pack.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: How do I pitch yeast with Percy\u2122?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A: The Percy\u2122 tool has a hollow tip and handle. Before each use, the tool must be cleaned, disinfected and dried following our instructions manual. Once brewers have removed the seal covering the adhesive Easy-To-Open Target Disc on our 500g and 2.5kg yeast packs, they can then puncture the sterile area with the piercing tool.<\/p>\n<p>The tip of the tool is designed to easily pierce our vacuum-sealed foil packs and adhere to the sticky area of the Target Disc. When the yeast pack and tool are then inverted, the Percy\u2122 tool allows the yeast to flow steadily through the handle and into the fermentation vessel.<\/p>\n<p>Always check the surface of the tool before each use. Replace if signs of wear (cracks, scratches, or rough internal surface).<\/p>\n<p>Consult our <a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.bfldr.com\/G7S7MSWL\/at\/7v764fwk86chr8j8jj2vhp\/Percy_instruction_manual_A4.pdf?format=pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">instruction manual<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=wgl2YiO6D88&amp;list=PLoCtCuwOaBFK0PTB5AxS_2v13FkzZpsQv&amp;index=2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">tutorial video<\/a> for a step-by-step guide.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: How do I clean and disinfect the Percy\u2122 tool?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A: Percy\u2122 can be rinsed with warm water or cleaned in a dishwasher. To disinfect the tool, we recommend a disinfection bath or using a 70% isopropanol solution. Alternatively, use your brewery\u2019s specific cleaning and sterilization procedures for tools and equipment.<\/p>\n<p>Ensure the piercing tool is completely dry before use.<\/p>\n<p>Consult our instruction manual for full cleaning instructions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: Where and how should Percy\u2122 be stored?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A: Follow your brewery\u2019s specific storing procedures for tools and equipment.<\/p>\n<p>To prevent premature wear, store the Percy\u2122 tool away from sunlight.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: The seal on the Easy-To-Open Target Disc is stuck. What do I do?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A: If the seal of the Easy-To-Open Target Disc is stuck, we recommend using the tip of the Percy\u2122 tool to help detach the tab.<\/p>\n<p>Consult our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=wgl2YiO6D88&amp;list=PLoCtCuwOaBFK0PTB5AxS_2v13FkzZpsQv&amp;index=2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">tutorial video<\/a> for a step-by-step guide.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: Can I open the new Fermentis Easy-To-Open packaging without Percy\u2122?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A: Yes. Brewers do not need the Percy\u2122 tool to open Fermentis beer yeast packs with an Easy-To-Open Target Disc. These packs can be opened using regular methods, such as scissors.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"row\"  id=\"row-1357858112\">\n\n\t<div id=\"col-57439550\" class=\"col small-12 large-12\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner text-center\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n<h2><strong>More resources on Percy\u2122:<\/strong><\/h2>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.bfldr.com\/G7S7MSWL\/at\/7v764fwk86chr8j8jj2vhp\/Percy_instruction_manual_A4.pdf?format=pdf\" class=\"button primary is-outline\" >\n\t\t<span>Read the instruction manual<\/span>\n\t<\/a>\n\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=wgl2YiO6D88\" class=\"button primary is-outline\" >\n\t\t<span>Video step-by-step guide<\/span>\n\t<\/a>\n\n<a href=\"https:\/\/fermentis.com\/en\/knowledge-center\/expert-insights\/superioryeast\/percy-q-a\/\" class=\"button primary is-outline\" >\n\t\t<span>More about Percy\u2122<\/span>\n\t<\/a>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n<style>\n#section_615547588 {\n  padding-top: 20px;\n  padding-bottom: 20px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/section>\n\t\n\n\t<section class=\"section\" id=\"section_474024408\">\n\t\t<div class=\"section-bg fill\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n\n\t\t<div class=\"section-content relative\">\n\t\t\t\n<div class=\"row\"  id=\"row-1014034494\">\n\n\t<div id=\"col-114923301\" class=\"col small-12 large-12\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n  <div class=\"banner has-hover bg-fade-in\" id=\"banner-1061420576\">\n          <div class=\"banner-inner fill\">\n        <div class=\"banner-bg fill\" >\n            <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1020\" height=\"680\" src=\"https:\/\/fermentis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/FERMENTIS_HAND-AND-YEAST-0804-1024x683.jpg\" class=\"bg attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" \/>                        <div class=\"overlay\"><\/div>            \n                    <\/div>\n\t\t\n        <div class=\"banner-layers container\">\n            <div class=\"fill banner-link\"><\/div>            \n   <div id=\"text-box-790631815\" class=\"text-box banner-layer x5 md-x5 lg-x5 y50 md-y50 lg-y50 res-text\">\n                                <div class=\"text-box-content text dark\">\n              \n              <div class=\"text-inner text-right\">\n                  \n<h2 class=\"uppercase\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>superior yeast<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span data-line-height=\"xl\">Raising standards for dry beer yeast quality:\u00a0<strong>better inside, better outside.<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">At Fermentis, quality and innovation are the two driving forces behind everything we do.
