Yeast

 

Ever wondered what’s the science or magic behind making alcohol? Yeast.

These tiny packets turn all the ingredients into wine. When it comes down to it, we have two options:

• Wild Yeast: These are natural yeasts used in traditional winemaking. It’s a much more difficult route since you have to activate it, but nonetheless, it’s a fun experience!

• Wine Yeast: If you’re a newbie, it’s better to start off with a wine yeast or champagne yeast. It’s easier and has better consistency when you don’t know all the ropes just yet. There are different types that you can choose from such as Montrachet or Red Star Premier Blanc.
