Yeast produces the most gas for fermentation at around 75-85°F (24-29°C). Temperatures outside this range can slow down or inhibit yeast activity.
Factors that affect fermentation rate include temperature, pH levels, type and concentration of yeast or bacteria, nutrient availability, and oxygen availability. Lower temperatures generally slow down fermentation, while higher temperatures can speed it up. Different strains of yeast or bacteria may have differing fermentation rates based on their characteristics.
The yeast feed on sugar/carbohydrates and their byproducts are Co2 and alcohol. Co2 is in its gaseous state and therefore bubbles out of the solution. Ethanol alcohol stays in the solution. Ethanol alcohol and Co2 are toxic to yeast just like humanities byproducts are toxic to us. So, when beginning a fermentation process the yeast begin feeding on the sugar or carbohydrates and because there is a large supply of food, the yeast population increases. The production of Co2 increases with increasing yeast population. The population of yeast reach a maximum and then their growth begins to be halted by a lack of nutrients and the amount of toxins (alcohol) in there world. The production slows and then stops when there is no more food for the yeast to eat on and/or the amount of alcohol has reached a level at which yeast cannot continue to live in.
Yeast will produce the most CO2 in the presence of glucose because it can readily and efficiently ferment glucose to produce CO2 and ethanol. Glucose is a simple sugar that can be easily broken down by the yeast for energy through fermentation. Sucrose and starch need to be broken down into glucose before yeast can ferment them, which can slow down the production of CO2.
Pasteurization doesn't remove all of the bacteria in it. Only sterilization will. Pasteurization will slow down the fermentation process for a while.
Salt can slow down the fermentation process by regulating the activity of yeast. It helps control the growth of yeast, leading to a more controlled and balanced fermentation process in bread making.
The presence of bentonite can affect the fermentation process by binding to proteins and other compounds in the liquid, which can impact the growth and activity of yeast and bacteria involved in fermentation. This can potentially slow down or alter the fermentation process.
Ethanol slows fermentation because it is a byproduct of the fermentation process itself. As ethanol concentration increases, it can inhibit the activity of the yeast responsible for fermentation. This inhibition ultimately slows down the fermentation process.

There could be several reasons why your mead is not bubbling after 24 hours of fermentation. It could be due to a slow fermentation process, improper yeast activation, low temperature, or insufficient nutrients for the yeast. It is recommended to check the temperature, yeast health, and nutrient levels to troubleshoot the issue.
Yes, salt can slow down the growth of yeast in baking, but it does not necessarily kill it. Salt can help control the fermentation process and improve the flavor of the bread.
help speed up the process if the amount of sugar added makes up to 8% of the ingredients present, more then that and it will begin to suffocate yeast and slow down the fermentation process
Fermentation will slow down and eventually stop once the yeast runs out of fermentable sugars to consume or when the alcohol content becomes too high for the yeast to survive. The specific timing can vary depending on the type of fermentation and the conditions in which it is taking place.
Putting the yeast and sugar solution in the refrigerator will slow down the fermentation process because the cold temperature will decrease the metabolic activity of the yeast. This will result in a longer fermentation time or potentially halt fermentation altogether until the solution is brought back to a warmer temperature.
'Fermation; ???? I think you mean 'FERMENTATION'. It is a slow chemical process using the enzyme, yeast, and at a specific temperature ( ~ 40 oC). It can take days to occur, and is used to make ethanol for beers wines and spirits.
Lagers are made through a process called fermentation, where yeast is used to convert sugars into alcohol. The production of lagers involves brewing a mixture of water, malted barley, hops, and yeast, then fermenting the mixture at low temperatures for a longer period of time compared to ales. This slow fermentation process gives lagers their distinct crisp and clean taste.
No, fermentation takes place in any place or situation but in vacuum condition fermentation takes place in very slow pace
