Prestige Turbo Yeast

What Are the Advantages of Prestige Turbo Yeast? mes Prestige Turbo Yeast was specifically developed as a laboratory product to produce top quality results for home and small scale distillers alike. It combines distillers yeast with highly complex micro and macro nutrients designed to speed fermentation rate while increasing quality of finished product while eliminating fusel oils, unpleasant flavor congeners such as Acetaldehyde (known to cause hangovers!) production.

Distillers yeast needs specific nutrients in order to thrive and reach its maximum performance – sugar doesn’t contain these elements, so hobby distillers must add them. Turbo yeast’s nutrient package ensures all necessary food sources are available to its yeast so it ferments significantly better than standard distillers yeast on its own.

Turbo yeast’s success lies in its composition; specifically its high percentage of trehalose, an alcohol-tolerant sugar which allows it to thrive even at higher alcohol levels than would typically kill it. Furthermore, its content of phospholipids helps prevent osmotic chock by helping retain water within cells instead of it leaking out through cell walls and osmotic choke.

To use Turbo yeast, dissolve the desired volume of sugar in hot water until you achieve your final liquid specific gravity level, stirring well after each addition of sugar sachets until your desired batch size has been met. Ferment for 10-14 days at 19-23degC air temperatures for best quality results as temperatures above 27degC can lead to the death of yeast cells.

Prestige Turbo Yeast is an instant yeast designed to enable home distillers to create triple distilled quality alcohol at a fraction of the cost of professional equipment. It works across a wide range of temperatures and only requires 6 kg (13.2 lb) or 8 kg (17.6 lb) of sugar for high ABV fermentation or 8 kg (17.6 lb) for fast speed fermentation; additionally it features mineral absorbents to further enhance its quality in your distillate.

Hambleton Bard Ltd now manufactures and distributes this instant yeast, initially developed by Gert Strand in Sweden during the 1980s, under its Alcotec brand. Through laboratory testing, this instant yeast has been refined to achieve maximum results from yeast. Unlike cheaper store mixtures that don’t provide all essential nutrients necessary for its proper functioning; distillers yeast lacks this source of nutrition and needs to be supplemented accordingly.

yeast requires complex vitamins and minerals in order to successfully turn sugar into alcohol, making it impossible to produce quality spirits from regular baker’s yeast alone due to slow fermentation rates or insufficient amounts of volatiles like acetaldehyde that give spirits their distinctive flavor and aroma.

An effective blend of very high alcohol tolerant yeast and vitamins can turn sugar into fine liquor in three days using 14% strain, and up to 18% within seven for stronger strain. Temperature control during fermentation is critical as liquid temperatures differ from ambient air temperatures by several degrees and cause an osmotic pressure between inside and outside yeast cells that causes them to die if left alone; so use a thermometer gauge or thermometer and follow package instructions accordingly for best results.
