Alcohol Base Turbo Yeast 20% Technical Characteristics

Alcohol Base Turbo Yeast 20% Technical Specification

Appearance: The mixture is in powder form and looks like miniature rods with a combination of white and buff colored particles.

Preparation of a batch using Alcohol Base Turbo Yeast 20%

1. Insert 95DE of glucose or dextrose syrup (quantity 47,500 kgs) into a fermentation tank (71% solids)
2. Top it up with cold water from mains to 100,000 L level
3. Addition of Alcohol Base Turbo Yeast 20% directly into tank (quantity 540 kgs) before mixing it thoroughly and leaving it for fermentation

Important Notes

Starting temperature of 95DE should be 60^oC and once the filling fermentation tank is filled with cold water from mains then the temperature should be maintained in the range of 21 – 35^oC, which in turn will depend on the season during the year and the temperature of your mains cold water. Although an ideal start liquid temperature of 30^oC is always preferred, a range between 21 – 35^oC is all right but only if the fermentation tank is equipped with automatic cooling feature.

Addition of Alcohol Base Turbo Yeast 20% can be done in two ways. If the fermentation tank is equipped with mixing feature then the yeast can be added directly as a dry mix. If the tank does not have mixing facility then the yeast should be added to 5,400 Liters of water at 30^oC temperature in another mixing vessel where it will need to be mixed in thoroughly for 3 minutes before being pumped into the fermentation tank within 15 minutes of the solution being prepared.

Target start gravity +130 (30.6 Brix)

Alternative Feedstock to 95DE – Alcohol Base Turbo yeast 20% can be ideally used with pure sugars such as 95DE sugar syrup, which ferments perfectly. However, alternative feedstock other then 95DE such as molasses, starch converted grains, dry dextrose and dry sucrose can also be used and support can certainly be extended if you wish to explore these options.
