I just did my first kolsch with the whitelabs yeast - just started drinking it and am really pleased with it. Pitch a good size starter. I did a 2L starter made with 2 vials of yeast into a 45l wort. The yeast is not that flocculent so if bottling it will be hard to get it really clear. Used some gelatine in the kegs and it was crystal.

we have made kolsch plenty of times before using white jlabs wlp029 yeast and its cleared fine with gelatin We bottled and kegged it too. this time though we are using brew labs yeast see if it makes any taste difference
