Product Features & Benefits
  • VitaHop® Silver provides Thiamine and ammonium salt support yeast growth and metabolism
  • Inactive yeast is a source of assimilable nitrogen (amino acids), sterols, and long chain fatty acids that strengthens the yeast at the end of fermentation. These elements also play a protective role by fixing the C8 - C12 fatty acid inhibitors
  • This new liquid formulation provides improved performance compared to powdered product
  • Improves yeast alcohol tolerance and membrane permeability
  • Increased yeast viability at the end of fermentation
  • Increases alcohol yield & yeast alcohol tolerance
  • Multiple addition points - beginning of propagation fill or midway during fermentation
  • Resistance to significant temperature changes

Applications & Uses

Food & Nutrition Applications
Directions for Use
  • VitaHop® Silver can be added to the yeast propagator, at the start of the fill or midway through fermentation when yeast growth slows
  • Apply 1 gallon per 1000 gallons of working volume of mash in the prop

Technical Details & Test Data

Problems that Arises During Fermentation

Problems that may arise during fermentation are often due to decreased yeast viability which can be the result of:

  • Nutritional deficiency (thiamine, assimilable nitrogen)
  • Deficient yeast membrane permeability (low sterols and long chain fatty acids content)
  • Presence of inhibitors (such as alcohol, C8-C12 fatty acid inhibitors)
  • Signifi cant temperature changes
VitaHop® Silver liquid Performance Results

Field test prove that new VitaHop® Silver liquid outperforms the most popular competitive fermentation enhancer as well as the previous VitaHop® Silver powder.
