Abstrax Skyfarm Mango Flavour

Description

Abstrax Skyfarm Mango is a natural terpene-based flavour extract that delivers the authentic aroma and flavour of ripe mangoes to beer, cider, seltzer, and mead — without the fermentable sugars, wild yeast contamination risk, or batch inconsistency of fruit purees. A 5ml bottle is enough for a standard 23L batch, releasing the full tropical sweetness of mango through isolated terpenes that integrate cleanly into finished beverages at any stage of the brewing process. The extract contains no fermentable sugars (ABV and carbonation remain stable), adds no haze-forming compounds, and is heat treated and sterile filtered for safety. Includes a free 3ml pipette. In stock at Yeast Platform, shipped from our Australian warehouse.

Flavour Profile

Mango’s flavour arc runs from bright initial citrus notes through rich tropical sweetness to a sweet, lingering finish — and Abstrax Skyfarm Mango captures all three stages via isolated terpenes rather than fruit puree. In brewing, mango character works in an unusually wide range of styles: at low doses in a NEIPA it deepens and focuses the tropical impression of Galaxy or Mosaic dry hopping; in a fruit wheat ale it becomes the leading flavour; in a hard seltzer or cider it provides a familiar, approachable tropical fruitiness that’s popular for lighter drinking occasions. The extract integrates without the stringiness or pulp issues of fresh mango additions and doesn’t produce the oxidation-sensitive compounds that make puree-based fruit beers fragile during packaging.

When and How to Add It

Abstrax Skyfarm Mango is a fully soluble liquid that distributes evenly without extended contact time. Add at primary fermentation (after high krausen, days 3–5) to integrate mango character into the beer’s fermentation profile — the yeast interacts with terpenes and softens the extract’s raw fruit edge. Add at secondary or conditioning for a more pronounced mango note that reads distinctly above the beer’s base character. Add at packaging (the approach most recommended for hop-forward styles and seltzers) for maximum aroma impact in the finished product. For cider and mead, packaging-stage addition keeps the fruit character fresh and forward. Dose with the included pipette and distribute by gently rocking the fermenter or keg.

Mango Extract for Australian Home Brewing

Mango is Australia’s most grown stone fruit and is naturally abundant here in summer — but fresh mango additions in home brewing bring inconsistency: variable sugar content affects attenuation, fresh fruit introduces wild yeast, and the flavour can fade quickly in packaged beer. Abstrax Skyfarm Mango solves these problems year-round: the same terpene concentration in every bottle, no wild yeast, no fermentable sugars, and shelf-stable until opened. For Australian brewers producing summer seasonals — mango IPAs, mango hard seltzers, tropical fruit ciders — this extract provides a reliable mango flavour platform that performs consistently regardless of whether fresh mangoes are in season.
