Wine yeast is an indispensable component for making wine in industrial production. Without the use of this additive, wine must may not be transformed into an aromatic and tasty drink. Many characteristics of the finished product depend on the type of fungi that are used to make wine. Their main task is to activate the wort fermentation process. In order for sugar to turn into wine alcohol, you need to buy wine yeast and add it to the preparation of the drink.

Fungi actively multiply, eating sugar from the wort. As a result of the vital activity of microorganisms, alcohol is produced. Wine yeast is a natural product. Fungi are naturally present on the surface of sweet fruits and berries, causing fermentation and subsequent spoilage. With an increased concentration of fungi on the skin of grapes, a whitish coating forms.

Buying grape yeast is also preferred by home winemakers to speed up the cooking process and improve the taste of the wine. Artificially grown strains of yeast cultures are more resistant to external influences, support the fermentation process in almost any conditions. They work effectively for the fermentation of berry raw materials, fresh juice and extracts obtained from any berries and fruits.

The use of strains guarantees an increased concentration of ethyl alcohol in wine. The proportion of alcohol in the finished product is usually more than 16%. Artificial strains are more often universal. Equally suitable for obtaining different types of wine - red, rose, white, sweet and dry, with a high content of ethanol.

Natural fungi are characterized by reduced alcohol resistance, which means a lower concentration of alcohol in the finished product. With strains that are resistant to alcohol and elevated temperatures, more ethanol is produced during the fermentation of the wort. In natural fermentation, the must is not fully fermented. Wine yeast is necessarily used in industrial winemaking due to its characteristics and properties:

  • Support continuous fermentation.
  • They give predictable results.
  • They help to obtain pronounced organoleptic indicators of wine.
  • Allows you to control the main characteristics of wine - taste, aroma, strength level.
  • Safety for human health.

Spontaneous fermentation can cause undesirable consequences, such as spoilage of the product due to the presence of a large number of fungi that are not suitable for wort fermentation and alcohol production. Unsuitable fungi can impart unpleasant foreign tastes and odors to the finished product.
