Saf-Gold DCL Instant Osmotolerant Yeast 10kg Pack

The specialist yeast from LeSaffre/DCL, LeSaffre Saf-Gold is an Osmotolerant yeast and is the recognised international reference instant yeast for high sugar or enriched recipes, in a 10kg vacuum pack. It is also effective as a general purpose instant yeast.

What does osmotolerant yeast do? Most yeast is retarded or inhibited by high sugar recipes, making it dry out through osmosis. LeSaffre Osmotolerant Saf-Gold yeast is specially formulated to handle high sugar (above 5%) recipes, to give a vigorous rise in your brioches, panettone. (This drying action caused by the presence of high sugar is why honey doesn't go off: any unwanted bacteria are dried out and killed).

This yeast starts working immediately on contact with flour/sugar/water mixes and relishes high sugar conditions.

Once opened the packs must be folded/clipped to minimise ingress of air and moisture and kept refrigerated.
