DISTILLER’S YEAST FROM BROWIN

NOW MAKING AN EVEN STRONGER IMPRESSION! Distiller’s yeast is a select group of yeast varieties, specialized for production of highly concentrated alcohol. They are resistant to high concentration of sugar (up to about 32°Blg). The distiller’s yeast family includes many strains that differ in terms of the fermentation duration and, as a result, the time of batch fining and the amount of fermentation side products such as hydrogen sulfide. You can choose either distiller’s yeast without nutrient addition or turbo yeast that contains both yeast and nutrients within a single sachet. Our offer features a wider array of turbo yeast varieties, i.e. select distiller’s yeast varieties with nutrients adjusted to them. The nutrients include all substances that the yeast requires – sources of nitrogen and phosphorus (e.g. diammonium phosphate), vitamins (i.e. thiamine hydrochloride - vitamin B 1 ), and buffering substances responsible for ensuring pH value appropriate for yeast (e.g. calcium carbonate).

Tannins - the magic ingredients of wine

Tannins from a group of organic compounds that are naturally synthesized by plants. We find them in wine thanks to the raw materials used for producing this drink – grapes and other fruit. They are also present in stems, and even in tree bark. We can find them on labels of certain products under the symbol E181. The main function of tannins is the protection of plants – the characteristic bitterness of tannins effectively discourages animals from tasting any tannin-flavoured “meals”. During studies of the impact of tannins on plants it was also found that they have antiseptic properties, thanks to which they provide good protection against fungi and insects.
