ty48 yeast product brochure

TY48 UK BROCHURE

IntroductionTY48 is the only yeast product that will ferment pure sugar to 20% ABV high quality alcohol base.

The resultant alcohol base can be used to produce a whole range of alcoholic beverages and will provide your end drink with a more natural, smooth, fuller-flavour than using potable distilled alcohol (GNS).

The taxation benefits of using TY48 to produce your own alcohol base, in comparison to using potable distilled alcohol, are also a major advantage.

Containing complete, chemically defined macro and micro nutrition blended with a vigorous,temperature tolerant active dried distillers yeast; TY48 is capable of

fermenting pure glucose-based sugar syrups such as ‘95DE’ to 20% in 7 days with no additional nutritional requirements.

TY48 can be used to ferment any fermentable sugar based feedstock but is especially recommended for fermentation of pure glucose-based feedstocks such as 95DE glucose syrup.

TY48 contains fermentation activators to ensure rapid start to fermentation; this combined with very low bacterial content eliminates the potential for bacterial spoilage where good plant hygiene is observed.

Tax BenefitsMost countries around the world have a taxation system that does not tax all alcoholic products with the same %ABV at the same rate. As a result, there are huge taxation saving benefits associated with producing your own alcohol base using TY48, compared with purchasing in potable alcohol (GNS).

Taxation Rates ExamplePlease note that as taxation rates vary from country to country, EU figures have been used to illustrate the possible savings.

Taxation rates example:

Please note that these figures will vary from country to country but the principle that producing your own alcohol base is cheaper than purchasing in potable alcohol due to taxation laws, will normally be the same.

Technical Characteristics(Technical Specification)

Appearance: A mixture of white crystalline powder and buff coloured rod shaped particles.

Moisture: <3%Viability: >1.0 x 1010/g yeastTotal Bacteria: <1 x 104/gramColiforms: <50/g

Lead: <3mg/kgArsenic: <1mg/kgIron: <5mg/kgSO3: <200mg/kg

Fluoride: <70mg/kgChloride: <50mg/kgHeavy Metals (as Pb): <10mg/kg

Batch Preparation1. Transfer 47,500 kg 95DE glucose/dextrose syrup into

fermentation tank (71% solids).

2. Top up to 100,000 litres with mains cold water.

3. Add 540 kg of TY48 directly, mix well and leave to ferment.

NotesStart temperature – 95DE should be delivered hot at 60°C, after filling fermenter with mains cold water the temperature should be between 21-35°C depending upon the time of year/mains cold water temperature. The perfect start liquid temperature is 30°C but any temperature within this 21-35°C range is acceptable providing the fermenter has automatic cooling facilities.TY48 addition – either directly into the fermenter as dry mix where the fermenter has mixing facility or add to 5,400L of 30°C water in a separate mixing vessel, mix for 3 minutes then pump across into fermenter within 15 minutes of product preparation.

NotesTarget start gravity– +130 (30.6 Brix)

Alternate feedstock– Whilst Ty48 is designed for use with pure fermentable sugars such as 95DE sugar syrup a wide range of other fermentable feedstocks can be used such as dry sucrose, dry dextrose, molasses and starch converted grains. Support can be provided where such alternative feedstock is used.

PROCESS CONDITIONS

Process ConditionsFermentation temperature – It is important that the liquid fermentation temperature be maintained between 20-26°C (optimum 25-26°C). Temperature 27°C or above may result in stuck fermentation. Note that the lower the temperature the longer the fermentation time, for example, a fermentation temperature of 20°C would take 10 days to reach 20%ABV.

pH – There is no need for pH monitoring and adjustment during fermentation with TY48. This product contains sufficient food-grade pH buffers for intrinsic pH control.

Foaming – TY48 is extremely low foaming and does contain antifoaming agents. Minimal foaming will occur during the first 24 hours where liquid antifoam should be added where less than 10% free tank head space.

Treatment

Post Fermentation TreatmentDependent upon what capital facilities are available, see below for the two main approaches to removal of solids and unwanted fermentation impurities. All consumable raw materials such as activated powdered and granular carbons, finings agents kieselsol & chitosan and other abosbents such as activated silicon dioxide can be supplied together with TY48.

Solids RemovalFermentation in a conical vessel will result in a solid ‘plug’ of yeast cells and absorbents collecting at the bottom of the vessel; this must be removed before the fermented alcohol base can be transferred from the vessel for filtration. The solids should be ‘blown’ out of the vessel outlet valve by repeated short openings of the outlet valve followed by two hour re-settling time until the majority of the solids have been removed.

End DrinkOption

s

End Drink OptionsThe post-treatment 20% ABV alcohol can be used to produce a variety of alcoholic beverages with quality advantages over and above using potable distilled alcohol (GNS) conferring a natural, smooth and fuller flavour. All consumable raw materials such as flavourings and natural extracts, sweetening sugars, cream powder and all other ingredients required to make any of the below alcoholic beverages can be supplied together with TY48.
