Temp diff between Turbo vs. Bakers yeast

Post by SaltUbar »

Hi Guys,

Quick question; I have just started running two 50lt batches of Winos sugar wash. I have got all the ingredients as specified and made sure all are identical with the exception of the yeast.

In one batch i am using an Edmonds (local brand) bakers yeast and in the second I am using a Spiritbrew Turbo yeast "classic" .

This is day two of the ferment and I have noticed that apart from the turbo yeast off gasing significantly more CO2 the temperature is also staying much higher than I was expecting.

Using the same insulation and electric blanket I am finding that the turbo stays at about 10 degrees C higher than the bakers yeast batch.

Turbo is at about 35 degrees C
Bakers is at about 25 degrees C

Is this normal for a turbo yeast?
