Fresh Dried Yeast
Efficient & Sustainable Production
Our production process is a journey of transformation, from fresh yeast collection to dehydration and final packaging. Each step is carefully monitored to ensure a premium, high-quality product designed for animal nutrition. With efficiency and sustainability at its core, this process turns brewery co-products into valuable, eco-friendly resources.
- Yeast Reception & Storage: To ensure smooth operations throughout the year, we have expanded our storage capacity with three dedicated tanks. This upgrade allows us to manage fluctuations in beer production demand, reducing pressure on the brewery during peak consumption months while maintaining an uninterrupted supply of fresh yeast for processing.
- Yeast Centrifugation: The addition of the decanter centrifuge has significantly improved the efficiency and consistency of the dehydration process, ensuring a uniform moisture content in the yeast. This equipment reduces subsequent drying costs and minimizes manual interventions, streamlining the process and enhancing sustainability.
- Yeast Autolysis: Our yeast undergoes autolysis in a carefully controlled buffer tank, where natural enzymes break down its cell walls. This process enhances nutrient availability, making the final product more digestible and beneficial for animal consumption.
- Yeast Dehydration: At our facility, yeast dehydration is carried out using advanced drum dryer technology, ensuring efficient and consistent results. The yeast is applied to the heated drum surface, where rapid moisture evaporation transforms it into dry, nutrient-rich particles. With the addition of a new drum dryer, we’ve increased drying capacity and optimized energy efficiency. This innovative system ensures even yeast distribution within the drum, delivering a more efficient, consistent process while maintaining the high quality of the final product.
- Grinding & Sieving: After the yeast is dehydrated, it undergoes a grinding and sieving process to achieve a uniform particle size. This step ensures consistency in the final product, making it easier to incorporate into animal feed formulations. By enhancing the distribution of nutrients, it improves the overall effectiveness of the feed, contributing to better animal health and performance.
- Storage and Shipping: The final yeast product is stored under controlled conditions to maintain its quality. Prior to shipping, it is carefully prepared for delivery, ensuring it reaches the end customer in optimal condition.
Consumption Benefits
In addition to being a highly nutritious food source that addresses nutritional deficiencies, the inclusion of brewer’s yeast in pet food offers various well-recognized functional effects, such as:
- Increased Ingredient Palatability: Thanks to its high concentration of glutamic acid, brewer’s yeast enhances the palatability of pet food. Glutamic acid is an amino acid that, in its free form, binds to a sodium atom, forming monosodium glutamate—a flavor-enhancing umami compound that makes pet food more appealing to animals.
- Improved Immune Function: The β-glucans found in the yeast cell wall act as immunomodulators, stimulating the activity of cells involved in immune response. By incorporating brewer’s yeast into pet food, these beneficial compounds help support a stronger immune system.
- Gut Health Benefits : Mannanoligosaccharides (MOS) act as prebiotics, promoting the growth of beneficial gut bacteria. Additionally, yeast is a rich source of fiber, which helps regulate intestinal transit and supports overall digestive health.
- Skin and Coat Health Maintenance : Brewer’s yeast is rich in essential amino acids, which are the building blocks of various proteins, including those that make up the skin and coat. Additionally, the vitamins found in brewer’s yeast, especially biotin, support healthy and shiny fur by strengthening hair follicles.
