Good Morning • Please get out pen/paper to take some notes • I will start the powerpoint as soon as the bell rings with or without you being ready. • The information given today will be on a test in the next week or two
Yeast http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wixX922y3S0
History • Man used yeast to leaven (to make rise) bread 5000 years ago • We were using yeast to bake bread before we had a written language • Luis Pasteur identified yeast as a living organism in the 1860’s after the microscope was invented
Yeast get hungryLike Pac Man does • Dry activated yeast wake up when liquid is added to them • Yeast like temperatures from 95-105 degrees F • Yeast are killed at 120 degrees F • They need something to eat: • Simple carbs-sugar and flour is what they like best • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=htl_vwkZWHw
Yeasts is gassy…. • Yeast burp and fart out C02 gas after they eat • Which is a good thing for us Yeast also produce alcohol, which gives our bread flavor. Alcohol evaporates when cooked.
