At what temperatures does yeast grow best?

Answer 1

It depends on the strain. It depends on what you mean by ideal. The higher the temperature the faster fermentation, but yeast mortality also increases as the temperature rises. Above a certain temperature and the yeast will be killed. Around 25 decrees C is good temperature for fast fermentation without temperature related mortality. Its worth noting that a range of flavour compounds are produced during fermentation and these are very important for wine and beer making and these are also temperature dependant. The best results are often at temperature lower than those that would provide the fastest fermentation. This drives many brewing practices and shows that what's ideal for the yeast may not be what's ideal for the brewer.

Answer 2

That depends on when you are going to make the bread. If you are making it the same day then 110 degrees (which is luke warm to the touch) is a perfect climate for hungry yeast. Anything hotter and you risk killing the yeast.

If you don't plan to make the bread for a few days, you can do a cold rise in the fridge. For this you don't need to use warm water, in fact you can use very cold water.

Answer 3

The best temperature of yeast to respire is at 37 degrees.

Answer 4

The usual temperature for proofing (growing or developing) yeast is 110 degrees farenheit.

Answer 5

body temperature

Answer 6

35degrees celcius is best i think
