DEF

Water-soluble preparations(liquid, paste, powder or granules) obtained from e. g. brewers’ or bakers’ yeast...

CONT

Yeast autolysates are concentrates of the soluble components of yeast cells and in Europe are predominantly produced by autolysis. That is to say, that the cell hydrolysis is performed without addition of other enzymes. Yeast autolysates are known under the name of "yeast extracts" and are mainly used in the fermentation industry as substrates and in the food industry as flavour improvers. In Europe, the major raw material for yeast extract is primary grown high protein yeast (strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae), which is grown on molasses based media. In the United Kingdom and in the United States, yeast extracts are also manufactured from debittered brewers yeasts (strains of saccharomyces cerevisiae or Saccharomyces uvarum). Other raw materials in use are yeasts such as Kluyveromyces fragilis (fermented on whey) or Candida utilis (grown on high carbohydrate waste-products of the timber industry or on ethanol).

La culture peut être réalisée sur différents milieux : milieu TYE (tryptone 0,4 p. cent, extrait de levure 0,05 p. cent, CaCl2 0,02 p. cent, MgSO4 0,05 p. cent), milieu d'Anacker et Ordal (tryptone 0,5 p. cent, extrait de levure 0,05 p. cent, acétate de sodium 0,02 p. cent, extrait de viande de bœuf 0,02 p.cent) ou mieux milieu d'Anacker et Ordal enrichi (5 p. cent de sérum de veau, 0,5 p. cent de tryptone, 0,05 p. cent d'extrait de levure, 0,02 p. cent d'acétate de sodium et 0,02 p. cent d'extrait de viande de boeuf). Après 48 à 72 heures d'incubation à une température comprise entre 15 et 17°C, on observe des colonies opaques, brillantes, pigmentées en jaune, non adhérentes à la gélose, lisses, circulaires à contours réguliers, d'odeur désagréable (qualifiée parfois d'odeur de fromage). La bactérie cultive à 5 et à 20°C, parfois à 25°C et jamais à 30°C. Aucune culture n'est obtenue sur milieu trypticase soja ou sur un milieu contenant 1 p. cent de NaCl.

English

Subject field(s)
  • Breadmaking
DEF

A widely used method for making rye sours, particularly among European rye bread bakers... It consists of three steps or stages that comprise the fresh sour, the basic sour, and the full sour. The required starter is normally taken from the preceding full sour and is mixed with rye flour and water to initiate the first stage, or fresh sour. Yeast is normally omitted in the multiple stage method.

DEF

A yeast (commonly Saccharomyces cerevisiae) used or suitable for use as leaven ...

CONT

The two forms of baker's yeast are compressed cakes(also called fresh yeast) and dehydrated granules(dry yeast).

CONT

The term ["baker's yeast" is] now used for what was commonly called distillers’ yeast, namely Saccharomyces cerevisiae, grown on a specially prepared molasses wort and using pure culture seed yeast. Baker's yeast is produced in special factories devoted to its production and not as a by-product of some other fermentation process.

CONT

La levadura de panificación es una especie de la familia Saccharomyces cerevisiae donde los científicos han aislado una cepa que es especialmente adecuada para el proceso de horneado. El nombre es una indicación de la forma en que funciona; sacchar significa que se alimenta de azúcar, myces quiere decir molde, y cerevisiae es una palabra que alguna vez fue usada para la cerveza. Cuando se administra la humedad, la alimentación y el buen ambiente, funcionará apropiadamente. Es de la misma especie utilizada para la producción de bebidas alcohólicas y extractos de sabor.

Unlike their European neighbours, Spanish bakers and consumers prefer breads produced on a sour-fermentatin method to breads made with compressed yeast, although some yeast-leavened bread is produced in the larger urban areas. Two principal types of bread are baked in Spain : namely Viennese types and hard types. Hard breads are make from a very stiff dough of low absorption(35%) which is often hand mixed and milled through a dough brake(bregadora). Both types of bread are baked on the hearth of the oven and are made in weights varying from 0. 5 to 2. 75 kilograms.

Contrairement à leurs voisins européens, les boulangers et les consommateurs espagnols préfèrent les pains obtenus par procédé de fermentation acide aux pains à levure pressée, bien que l'on produise dans les villes plus importantes du pain levé à la levure. Deux types principaux de pain sont fabriqués en Espagne : les types viennois et les types durs. Ces derniers sont faits d'une pâte très ferme, de faible hydratation (35%), qui est souvent malaxée à la main et passée au cylindre laminoir ("bregadora"). Ces deux types de pain sont cuits sur la sole du four et leur poids varie de 0,5 à 2,75 kilogrammes.

The first investigations into whey fermentation were carried out during the last war [In the fifties, workers in America] found that the most suitable organism was Saccharomyces fragilis(later renamed Kluyveromyces fragilis), a relative of the well-known baker's and brewer's yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The main difference between these two yeasts is that the former ferments lactose, whilst the latter does not.
