In most cases, the high temperature will cause the yeast to die, resulting in a stalled fermentation. Too much dead yeast can lead to an awful tasting brew and should be avoided at all costs.

Can you brew beer with bakers yeast?

Since it's yeast, it would produce beer but not nearly at the quality a specific beer brewing yeast would. Beer brewing should use specific strains of yeast to properly activate fermentation that turns the sugars of the beer into alcohol. Different types of beer require different types of yeast in the recipe to turn out properly. Baker's yeast is specifically intended for baking, while Brewers yeast is what you would want to use for brewing beer. If you use bakers yeast for beer brewing, your recipe will not turn out properly and your batch of beer will be probably not taste very good.


What if the yeast is not working in brewing beer?

There are several reasons this could happen: # The yeast was dead to begin with. # Something is wrong with the conditions for the yeast (temperature, infection, pollution). # The yeast was under pitched and is growing so slowly you can't tell. The solution to numbers 1 and 3 is to re-pitch the yeast as soon as it's apparent that the yeast is not growing. You'll want to use a starter if possible to give the yeast a good head start over any potential infection in the brew. The solution to number 2 is to correct any environmental problems (like temperature) and re-pitch the yeast as needed. If the problem is infection or pollution, however, the batch of beer is basically done for. You may not find this out until the re-pitched yeast also fails to grow. Yeast storage problems are usually the cause of number 1. Be sure to keep liquid yeast packets refrigerated until hours before they are ready to be used.
