  • Prestige Turbo Yeast and Pizza

    Prestige Turbo Yeast and coldfermented dough

    Prestige Turbo Yeast is an ideal yeast choice for producing pizza dough, as it produces high quality alcohol in less than 24 hours and quickly ferments it to perfection. Furthermore, this yeast extracts and enhances flavors, and can achieve up to 18% alcohol by volume production without becoming stuck or producing too much of its own alcohol production; its sachets contain sufficient nitrogen nutrients for producing smooth-tasting spirits that won’t ferment into bitter brews!

    To prepare the dough for fermentation, mix all of your ingredients with a paddle attachment in a mixer until all components have been evenly distributed and formed into smooth dough. Form small balls from this mass and place them into a lightly greased bowl before covering and placing it into your refrigerator for four days of incubation.

    Once your dough has rested for two hours, take it out of the fridge and allow it to relax at room temperature for two more. This allows it to fully expand, giving your pizza its signature texture and flavor. After resting, be sure to coat the ball of dough in olive oil to avoid it sticking to your oven and start baking! Enjoy your pizza!

  • Alcohol Distillation’s Impact on the Environment

    Alcohol distillation’s environmental impacts may not be as well known as those associated with gasoline production, yet both share many of the same environmental concerns, including flammability, biodegradation and the production of hazardous substances.

    At an alcohol plant, the first distillation column works to extract alcohol from water by boiling. The amount of alcohol vapor condensed depends on its reflux ratio – as more is produced, but also energy costs increase due to more space being taken up by ethanol vapor than water vapor.

    The second column recombines alcohol and water vapors into an approximately 90 to 95% pure alcohol mixture called heads or tails, which also contains small quantities of methanol which has an extremely lower boiling point than ethanol, yet its molecules cling together tightly within the still and are difficult to separate – Methanol is highly toxic to humans, and must be separated and discarded as soon as possible since prolonged exposure could result in blindness.

    Bottoms is a liquid product resulting from distilling of the rest of the methanol-water vapor, collected in the third distillation column and condensed as bottoms. This material may then be burned to generate electricity or mixed with gasoline to make ethanol fuel, although for this latter option an extra energy-consuming blending tank must be installed as this adds further costs associated with distillation system operation.
