Yeast-Booster – yeast reactivation and propagation for breweries
The Quantor Yeast-Booster is a compact, mobile unit that reactivates and propagates dry yeast before it goes into the fermentation tank. It manages water, temperature, oxygen and nutrients automatically. The Yeast-Booster PRO handles up to 2 kg of dry yeast per batch, and the Yeast-Booster MAX up to 10 kg. The unit is made to order.
Please note: The professional range is only available in Norway.
How the Yeast-Booster works
- Filling: The unit fills itself with the starting volume of water.
- Heating: The water is heated to the start temperature, and the display and a flashing light show when to add the dry yeast.
- Propagation: The mix is kept gently moving, and must from the target tank is pumped in every 15 minutes as nutrition.
The programme is saved, so the process can be repeated identically from batch to batch.
Yeast-Booster FAQ
What is the difference between the Yeast-Booster PRO and MAX?
Capacity. The PRO reactivates up to 2 kg of dry yeast per batch, and the MAX up to 10 kg.
Why reactivate yeast before pitching?
Reactivated yeast cells are strong and growing when they enter the tank, so fermentation starts quickly. Quantor states that this improves fermentation quality and reduces the risk of a stuck fermentation.
