Question

Yeast has tendency to multiply rapidly in sugar source. name the process by which it multiplies and increases its number

Answer 1

The propagation process begins by placing a few milligrams of yeast cells in a test tube. We then wake up the yeast by adding nutrients. After a few hours, the cells will have multiplied to the point where they need more space and are transferred to a vat. As the cells continue to multiply, they are transferred to larger and larger vats. After a week, the starter culture will have grown to around 150 tons of yeast in which all the cells have identical characteristics. Each gram of fresh yeast contains 3 billion living cells.

When we stop adding nutrients and air, the yeast stops growing and can be separated off. The resulting cream is cooled to around 2°C and stored in refrigerated tanks. Immediately before packing and storage, water is removed to give the finished product the right consistency and dry matter content.
