Active Dry Yeast (ADY) also known as instant yeast is a type of yeast that has been dried to remove excess moisture, making it easier to store and transport while extending it shelve life compared to other yeast. It is a living organism (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) that is responsible for fermentation. This results in a granular form of yeast designed to be re - hydrated before use.

Characteristics of Active Dry Yeast

 

Appearance: ADY appears as a tan or grayish-brown powder.

 

Reconstitution: To use ADY, it needs to be rehydrated in warm water (around 100°F to 110°F) before adding it to the dough or mixture.

 

Fermentation: ADY ferments sugars, producing carbon dioxide gas, which causes dough to rise.

 

Uses of Active Dry Yeast

 

Baking: Is commonly used in bread making, pizza dough, rolls, and other baked goods.

 

Brewing: Used in beer brewing to ferment sugars and produce alcohol.

 

Wine making: Used in wine production to ferment grape sugars and produce wine.

 

 

In summary, active dry yeast is a versatile and essential ingredient in many industries, including baking, brewing, and wine making. Its ability to ferment sugars and produce carbon dioxide makes it a crucial component in the production of bread, beer and wine.
