Turbo Yeast

Turbo Yeast

Turbo yeast is a mix of dry yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and nutrition optimised for the yeast. There are many different strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and this is where the difference in most distilling yeasts lie. Strains are specifically chosen for its ability to produce quality alcohol and is packed with nutrients that are optimised for providing exactly the right combination of nitrogen, vitamins and trace minerals which the yeast needs in the different stages of the alcohol’s fermentation process.

Yeast is a single cell organism which multiplies vigorously in the presence of oxygen and then after all of the oxygen is used up, yeast will convert sugar into alcohol. Fermentation is simply the process by which yeast converts sugar into alcohol and carbon dioxide – the essence of our wash!
