  2. Saccharomyces cerevisiae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saccharomyces_cerevisiae

    Top-fermenting yeasts are fermented at higher temperatures than the lager yeast Saccharomyces pastorianus, and the resulting beers have a different flavor from the same beverage fermented with a lager yeast. "Fruity esters" may be formed if the yeast undergoes temperatures near 21 °C (70 °F), or if the fermentation temperature of the beverage ...

  3. Steam beer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_beer

    Conversely, ale yeast is best used at temperatures from 55 to 75 °F (13 to 24 °C). Fermentation by ale yeasts produces a beer that has a more distinct flavor. Steam Beer uses bottom fermenting lager yeasts at ale temperatures, which results in a very distinctive flavor profile that includes both ale and lager characteristics. [5]

  4. Straight dough - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straight_dough

    It may be performed at bulk-fermentation temperatures, [29] or temperatures up to about 95–100 °F (35–38 °C), and with 83–88% relative humidity. [21] Yeast thrives within the temperature range of 70–95 °F (21–35 °C), [7] and within that range, warmer temperatures result in faster baker's yeast fermentation times. The proofing ...

  5. Sponge and dough - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sponge_and_dough

    The sponge's fermentation time depends on its temperature and that of the surrounding area, the ingredients used, and the percentage amount of yeast. It ferments in a humid environment at 74–78 °F (23–26 °C), where it may rise and expand to 4-5 times its original volume, when it falls it has reached 66-70% of its allotted time.

  6. Brewing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brewing

    A 16th-century brewery Brewing is the production of beer by steeping a starch source (commonly cereal grains, the most popular of which is barley) in water and fermenting the resulting sweet liquid with yeast. It may be done in a brewery by a commercial brewer, at home by a homebrewer, or communally. Brewing has taken place since around the 6th millennium BC, and archaeological evidence ...

  7. Proofing (baking technique) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proofing_(baking_technique)

    The warm temperatures increase the activity of the yeast, resulting in increased carbon dioxide production and a higher, faster rise. Dough is typically allowed to rise in the proofer before baking, but can also be used for the first rise, or bulk fermentation.

  8. Baker's yeast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baker's_yeast

    Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the yeast commonly used as baker's yeast. Gradation marks are 1 μm apart.. Baker yeast is the common name for the strains of yeast commonly used in baking bread and other bakery products, serving as a leavening agent which causes the bread to rise (expand and become lighter and softer) by converting the fermentable sugars present in the dough into carbon dioxide and ...

  9. Pre-ferment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pre-ferment

    Too warm a temperature slows growth, while even higher temperatures will kill the yeast. Death of the yeast cells occur in the range of 50–60 °C (122–140 °F). [ 19 ] [ 20 ] [ 21 ] When cooling a levain or sourdough pre-ferment, if the dough temperature drops below 10 °C (50 °F) it affects the culture and leads to the loss of a ...
