High-performance turbo yeast and nutrient system for clean neutral spirit washes up to 20% ABV
Impressence NextGen Turbo Yeast 180g is a high-performance turbo yeast and nutrient system designed for clean, reliable sugar wash fermentation for distilling.
NextGen gives you two fermentation options from the same pack: make a 25L High Gravity wash up to 20% ABV, or choose the 50L Super Clean wash at approximately 10% ABV when producing a cleaner neutral base is the priority.
Unlike conventional turbo yeast packs where the yeast and nutrients are combined, NextGen uses separate yeast and nutrient sachets, helping protect the yeast during storage while supplying the nutrients, vitamins, minerals and pH buffering required during fermentation.

Why Use Impressence NextGen Turbo Yeast?
NextGen is designed to give home distillers greater control over the type of sugar wash they produce.
Choose the High Gravity method when you want to maximise alcohol yield from a 25L fermentation, or use the Super Clean method when a lower-gravity, cleaner 50L neutral wash is preferred.
Both methods use 9.25kg of dextrose, with the final wash volume determining the target alcohol level.
Fermentation Options
| Method | Target ABV | Final Volume | Dextrose |
|---|---|---|---|
| High Gravity | Up to 20% | 25L | 9.25kg |
| Super Clean | Approx. 10% | 50L | 9.25kg |
The 25L High Gravity wash is designed to maximise alcohol yield, while the 50L Super Clean wash reduces the gravity and stress placed on the yeast when a cleaner neutral fermentation is preferred.
How to Use Impressence NextGen Turbo Yeast
- Clean and sanitise your fermenter and equipment.
- Dissolve 9.25kg dextrose in warm water.
- Top up with cold water to 25L for High Gravity or 50L for Super Clean.
- Ensure the wash temperature is between 20–25°C.
- Add both the yeast and nutrient sachets and stir thoroughly.
- Ferment at 20–25°C until the specific gravity is stable.
- Fermentation will typically take approximately 7–10 days.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Impressence NextGen Turbo Yeast?
Impressence NextGen is a turbo yeast and nutrient system designed for high-performance sugar wash fermentation for neutral spirit production.
How much alcohol can NextGen Turbo Yeast produce?
Using the 25L High Gravity method, the target is up to 20% ABV. The alternative 50L Super Clean method targets approximately 10% ABV.
How much sugar do I need?
The current instructions specify 9.25kg of dextrose for either method. The difference is whether the final wash is made up to 25L or 50L.
What temperature should I ferment NextGen at?
The recommended fermentation temperature is 20–25°C.
How long does fermentation take?
Fermentation typically takes approximately 7–10 days, with completion determined by a stable specific gravity reading.
What's the difference between High Gravity and Super Clean?
The High Gravity method produces up to 20% ABV in 25L and is aimed at maximising alcohol yield. The Super Clean method produces approximately 10% ABV in 50L and is intended to reduce yeast stress and produce a cleaner neutral wash.
