Fast Pitch® is an instant yeast starter. Go straight from can to flask and eliminate waiting, extra equipment, clean-up and risk of contamination. No boiling, no DME. From start to finish in under 5 minutes, Fast Pitch® is as easy as pour, pitch, propagate!
We’ve stressed the importance of yeast starters for two decades. Starters radically alter beer quality. Higher ABV with complete fermentations. Eliminated off-flavors through strong, healthy yeast. Reassurance that your yeast is viable before you pitch it. Essentially, a yeast starter is the fast track to commercial-quality craft brew. For the committed homebrewer, yeast starters are a ritual–and a revered one at that.
To make a long story short, yeast starters are the #1 way to radically improve every aspect of your homebrew. So we’re taking the next step in simplifying the process, and practically making them for you. A yeast starter with Fast Pitch® is as easy as making kool-aid. Add it to water, pitch yeast. Make better beer. It’s that easy.
Starter Original Gravity will be 1.040 when properly diluted, as indicated below.

Fast Pitch Instructions:
Use one can of Fast Pitch® for each liter of starter wort. Sanitize everything–flask, stopper, top of each can of Fast Pitch®, and yeast packet. Pour Fast Pitch® directly into your flask. Add 16 oz. water to the flask for each can of Fast Pitch®. Swirl to mix. Add yeast and cover with sanitized stopper. Stir regularly for the next 24 hours, or use a stir plate for best results. Fast Pitch® already contains yeast nutrient too. Damn, that was fast!
