Does yeast ferment better at room temperature or in a warmer temperature?
KrazyKatatzoo
Yeast needs a warm temperature to grow. The best temperature for proofing the yeast and rising the bread (or other yeast baked foods) is about 110 degrees Fahrenheit. If it's too hot, it will kill the yeast, and if it's too cold, it will retard or prevent the yeast from growing.

What is the role played by yeast in conversion of cane sugar to ethanol?
Yeast ferment the mollasesleft after canesugaris extracted from the cane to form ethanol.or yeast helps to separate glucose and frctosefrom the molasses and ferment to produce ethanol
When you mix yeast and hydrogen peroxide does the mixture get warmer?
Yes, the mixture does get warmer! It is called an exothermic chemical reaction, which just means it gives off heat. It is the opposite of an endothermic reaction, which means it absorbs heat. The reaction between hydrogen peroxide(C2H2) and yeast produces oxygen. Hope this answers your question!
How does yeast work in the making of bread?
Yeast is an small animal that eats food like sugar (candy bars,oreo etc) then it farts out a special type of gas. Put yeast in dough eat the sugar in it the releases the gas and makes the dough or bread grow and expand. And we can eat it. Yeast works better in the heat so0 then the bread will expand faster. but not too fast. that why we bake the yeast and dough and at a certain temperature so it does expand to slow or fast.
Does yeast grow better in bases or acids?
acid
Does room temperature affect how much gas is created by yeast?
Yes. as temperature rises pressure rises and density rises.
What is the optimal temperature for yeast to ferment and metabolise?
Room Temperature (26o - 28o C)
What is the temperature of a yeast environment?
The temperature of a yeast environment will have to be at 100 degrees Fahrenheit. Warmer temperatures will start to kill off the yeast, while colder temperatures will make it go dormant.
Does yeast ferment lactose?
Yes it does.
Can bananas ferment without yeast?
Any fruit, soft plants, etc, can ferment without yeast, as there are wild-yeasts and moulds everywhere.
What is used to ferment beer?
Brewer's yeast.
What are the importance of yeast?
yeast are the fermenters used in industries to ferment the substrate product.
What can happen if it is to hot for the yeast when making alcohol?
then the yeast dies and the brew won't ferment.
What bacteria is used to ferment fruits and grains?
Yeast
Does Splenda or Equal ferment yeast faster?
Splenda
What fungi are used to ferment wine beer and vinegar?
Yeast was used to ferment wine beer and vinegar.

How does temperature affect fermentation?
Yeast fermentation is affected by temperature as a result of the various different standards of temperatures that the yeasts are exposed to. If the yeasts are exposed to their optimum temperature(approximately 66.667 degrees Celsius), then this would yield the most amount of fermentation. However, the process by which fermentation occurs in the first place is by respiration, which obviously includes enzymes. Thus, if yeast cells become denatured, as a result of a too high temperature, which causes the yeast cells enzymes to be denatured, then the yeast would not ferment to the best of their ability, hence causing a decrease in the rate of fermentation. Likewise, if the yeast cells are exposed to low temperatures, then the yeast cells would be inhibited, and so they would also not work. However, this can be fixed unlike the prior case. When temperatures become optimum again, the yeast would ferment as usual again.
