2010年4月25日 · Of course beer yeast is more expensive than baker's yeast, unless I guess you're reusing yeast from your cake. Re my OP, they report an attenuation of 80% when using the bread yeast to ferment beer. On a more recent Basic Brewing Radio podcast a guest pointed out that until relatively recently in history, most bread and beer were made with the ...

2010年12月22日 · Brewers yeast and Baker's yeast are both of the same species, but have been selected for specific functional usage by humans. Much like every dog is the same species (Canis familiaris) decended from the same grey wolf species (Canis lupus), so are yeast.

2014年4月27日 · All that said, baker's yeast won't ferment as cleanly as brewer's yeast selected for beer, and likely has more wild microbes in it that yeast packaged for brewing. Still I've brewed and drank (Heavyweight brewed some gems with it in their dying days, East End still does) a number of solid beers fermented with baker's yeast.

2023年2月6日 · Technically it will be a beer, however not a usual one. There is a traditional European style of farmhouse beer brewed with baker's yeast (I mean Finnish Sahti). Those Sahtis are rare specialties and they taste unlike a "normal" beer. They are VERY malty, if that's what you like. You don't need to resort to baker's yeast when you have some US-05.

2023年1月8日 · Fresh yeast, if you can get it, is still used pretty commonly for enthusiasts. You'll have to convert the amount but a lot of people prefer to use it over dried. It also depends on what kind of projects you're making. If you usually make enriched doughs with sugar and little salt (calculated by baker's percentage), maybe try an osmotolerant one.

Buy some baker's yeast, about 50g raisins and a 1kg bag of sugar. Add 100g sugar to 4L water along with the yeast and raisins (chop the raisins first) Shake the f out of it to aerate it. Set it aside with tinfoil covering it for 2-3 days When initial fermentation starts to die down, add another 100g sugar and let fermentation kick up again.

2023年9月25日 · Yes, this specific strain of yeast can be used for brewing. However it’s most common market form is powder for a dietary supplement and to my knowledge this form is not suitable for hydration and being used as an actual yeast. Edit: forgot to mention that this yeast is a traditional ale yeast when it is an active yeast culture.

2011年5月12日 · Yeah, yeast are cannibalistic, but don't fault them for that. I tossed some Cooper's yeast into the boil of a batch before (IMO, about all it's good for). Of course, I still used a bit of Wyeast nutrient too. If you don't have any other nutrient, and you want to give the yeast some extra food, toss a packet into the boil.

2022年7月31日 · Both baker’s yeast and sourdough are going to give you a fairly low-quality product. Price being an issue, your best bet might be to pick up a $5 packet of dry brewing yeast and either build up a starter (so you can keep some for the next batch), or just save the cake at the bottom of one batch, and pitch a third or so of that in your next batch.
