Prestige Turbo Yeast and Safety

Yeast is the keystone to fermentation; it converts sugar to alcohol, providing the foundation for all the delicious flavors found in your alcoholic drink.

Quality yeast is key for successful fermentation.

Turbo Yeast contains dried Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast combined with an innovative blend of yeast nutrients tailored for turning sugar into alcohol. Each pack of turbo yeast offers distinct advantages in terms of speed, purity, and yield.

The combination of ingredients used to produce this yeast makes it more temperature tolerant, and ideal for use in all types of stills from simple “Amazing Still”s to advanced fractional stills. With proper conditions this strain can reach 14-18% yields within days!

Each pack contains 90gms of yeast which will effectively ferment a 25-litre batch. This strain of yeast is designed to tolerate high alcohol, temperature and osmotic pressure environments.

To get the best from this yeast, we advise using our selection of essences and aromas for maximum effect. These essences will add more flavour while improving its final result.

With this yeast, there’s no need to purchase expensive “special” fermentation sugars as it can ferment both regular white household sugar and glucose or dextrose without depleting Trehalose levels from yeast cells, thus increasing chances of stuck fermentations. This factor should be taken into consideration as cheaper sugars could deplete Trehalose reserves which contributes to internal strength loss as well as increased chances of fermentation stalling out altogether.
