LIQUID yeAST
Liquid yeast has gained popularity not only in the industrial sector but also with artisanal bakeries. The reason? it is a holistic solution that includes the product itself, associated technology and working methods.
Liquid yeast is made for short, medium and long fermentation processes. It adapts very well to cold processes, continuous fermentation, retarded and frozen processes.

Kastalia liquid yeast
In light of new regulatory constraints in matters of food safety and hygiene, Lesaffre has developed a global concept for a liquid yeast combined with a refrigerated dispenser: Kastalia. This ready-to-use yeast has been approved by craft bakers for its performance, efficiency and the guarantee of optimal hygiene.
Kastalia combines technology and simplicity to help bakers produce top-quality breads under the best food health and safety conditions. Adopted in a multitude of countries, these ready to use yeasts give excellent results.
