Prestige Turbo Yeast Vs Red Star Yeast

Prestige Turbo Yeast is an advanced fast-acting yeast designed to achieve maximum alcohol yield with rapid fermentation. Unlike regular active dry yeast, which requires proofing before being added directly to dough, these fast-acting yeasts do not require proofing and can be directly added for a higher alcohol yield and faster fermentation process. Furthermore, they produce less volatiles, better aromas, more finished product than standard active dry yeast as well as being extremely temperature tolerant making them suitable for various mash types and producing up to 18-20% final alcohol production more than other fast acting yeasts could do – producing much higher quantities than ordinary fast acting yeasts do!

Premium instant yeast offers rapid leavening times that allow you to cut baking times by up to half, perfect for traditional and bread machine baking methods alike. One strip contains three 0.25-ounce packets of Red Star Yeast; each packet equals approximately two and one quarter teaspoons of yeast cake.

Red Star Yeast Company LLC, a joint-venture between Lesaffre and Archer Daniels Midland Company, manufactures and distributes an extensive array of baking products across several global markets such as the US, Canada, Australia, Brazil Mexico and Philippines. One of its plants can be found in Headland Alabama.

Active dry yeast comes in the form of granular grains that can easily be reconstituted in hot water, making it easy to use in all kinds of yeast-leavened baked goods ranging from sponge or straight doughs, all the way through to desserts like cheesecake and pastries. Plus, its packaging ensures freshness so your yeast remains active!

The Art of Blending Distilled Spirits

Blending distilled spirits requires time and experience to perfect, yet it’s an integral part of production for fans of whiskey, rum, cognac or brandy alike. Blending can make all the difference when it comes to creating drinks you truly appreciate.

Blends of distillate barrels combine into one finished product that’s greater – and oftentimes more complex – than its individual parts. Blended spirits such as whisky, bourbon, rum and brandy production regions often utilize blends rather than single barrel expressions of these spirits for this reason.

As much as it may be possible to craft single-barrel scotch or bourbon in a small still, larger scale production requires multiple barrels and distillers – something most bourbon, rye and corn-based spirits don’t do before going for sale.

Replicating an exceptional scotch or whiskey blend requires carefully selecting ingredients to achieve consistency in aroma, flavor and color. A blender may utilize “heads” and tails of each distillate’s distillate to achieve this goal, filtering out undesirable compounds like nail polish remover or rubber from desirable compounds with fruity and floral aromas such as the hearts. Tails with strong alcohol stinging re-distillations to produce cleaner alcohol known as feints can also help.
