Pinnacle Distillers Yeast (G) 500g

An active dried yeast well-suited for use in simultaneous saccharification fermentations of starch substrates from grain.

SKU: DZZZ1103

Pinnacle Distillers Yeast (G) is an active dried yeast well-suited for use in simultaneous saccharification fermentations of starch substrates from grain. It has a high tolerance to liberated glucose.

  • Has a high cell count (> 20 x 109 cells/g)
  • Rehydrates well in direct pitch applications
  • Has high ethanol and temperature tolerance
  • Has organic acid tolerance
  • Can be used in conjunction with glucoamylase and alpha amylase enzyme systems

Application

This yeast product has optimal performance within a pH range of 4.0 to 5.0 but can ferment well in the range of 3.5 to 6.0. Optimal fermentation temperature is dependent on other stresses present (i.e. organic acid, ethanol and pH) but generally ferments well in the range of 33°C to 37°C (92°F to 98°F). Under proper conditions, this yeast can produce ethanol up to and beyond 16% w/v.

Directions

Yeast can be added directly to a fermenter at a dose rate of between 0.2 and 0.5 kilograms per 1000 litres (0.44 – 1.1 pounds per 1000 gallons).
