Like all true lager yeasts, it requires cold fermentation and cold conditioning to produce its best result. The investment in temperature control is what separates a good lager from a great one.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBest Suited To\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eMunich Helles, Märzen (Oktoberfest), German Dunkel\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMunich-style Pilsner, Doppelbock, Schwarzbier\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSpecs\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFermentation temp:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8–14°C primary; 0–4°C cold conditioning (4–8 weeks)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAttenuation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium-High\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFlocculation:\u003c\/strong\u003e High\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAlcohol tolerance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Up to 9% ABV\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ePitching rate:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 sachets per 23L\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhen to Choose M76\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChoose M76 over M84 when you are brewing Munich styles — Helles, Märzen, Dunkel. M76 is fuller and more malt-forward, which suits Munich character. M84 produces the drier, crisper profile of Czech and Bohemian styles.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIf you do not have cold fermentation capability, use M54 California Lager instead. M76 will not perform well above 15°C.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePractical Notes\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe diacetyl rest is not optional. After primary fermentation, raise the temperature to 18°C for 48 hours before moving to cold conditioning. Skipping this produces butterscotch character in the finished beer.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTwo sachets per 23L is standard for cold lager fermentation. Pitch at 10–12°C. M76 produces sulfur during active fermentation — normal, dissipates during conditioning.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eKeep refrigerated. Once opened, reseal and use within 7 days.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eReviewed by the AHB Brewing Team — June 2026.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mangrove Jack's","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41994570006605,"sku":"25022","price":9.5,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0635\/8306\/0045\/files\/25022.jpg?v=1754053383","url":"https:\/\/www.australianhomebrewing.com.au\/products\/mangrove-jacks-beer-yeast-bavarian-lager-m76","provider":"Australian Home Brewing","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
