Recommendations of usage
- Pour the desired quantity of yeast in 10 times its weight of tap water at 30-35°C in a wide vessel. Cover all the water surface area by creating a thin layer of yeast.
- Let it rest for 20 minutes.
- Gently stir to complete the yeast rehydration and avoid the formation of clumps.
- Slowly double the volume of the yeast suspension by adding must from the tank while stirring in order to decrease the temperature of the yeast starter and to start the activation of the yeast. The difference of temperature between the rehydrated yeast and the tank should not exceed 10°C, optimum being 5°C.
- Let it rest for another 10 minutes.
- Homogenize and incorporate the yeast starter to the must.
