Active Dry Yeast (ADY). The production of active dry yeast is very similar to the production of compressed yeast. However, a different strain of yeast is used and the nitrogen content is reduced to 7% of soHds compared with 8—9% for compressed yeast. The press cake made with the active dry yeast strain is extmded through a perforated plate in the form of thin strands with a diameter of 2—3 mm and a length of 3—10 mm. The strands are dried on endless belts of steel mesh in drying chambers (a continuous process) or in roto-louvre dryers (a batch process), with the temperature kept below 40°C. Drying time in drying chambers is 3—4 h and in roto-louvre dryers is 6 h or more. The final moisture level attained is 7.5—8%. 

Instant Active Dry Yeast. Instant ADY (lADY or HADY) production is similar to ADY production but requires a different strain of yeast. After pressing, the yeast is extmded into noodles 0.2—0.5 mm in diameter and 1—2 cm long and deposited on a metal screen or perforated plate in a fluid-bed air dryer. Drying time is shorter than with ADY, about 1—2 hours in practice, with a final moisture level of 4—6%. Instant active dry yeast does not require separate rehydration. It is always packaged in a protective atmosphere or under vacuum. On an equivalent soHds basis, the activity of lADY is greater than that of regular ADY, but stiU less than that of compressed yeast. 

Active dry yeasts of improved quality have been available for many years, and more recently instant active dry yeast has been introduced (15,20). This instant yeast exhibits more activity than regular active dry yeast due to improved drying techniques, and can replace compressed yeast at a rate of 33 —40%. Dried yeasts, which are stable for long periods of time at room temperature, are of interest to bakers because of the high distribution cost of fresh compressed yeast. This is especially tme for those away from distribution centers and for smaller bakers whose usage rate of yeast is low. 

Dried Yeasts. The traditional form of dried yeast is known as active dry yeast (ADY). This product normally only had 75-80% of the gassing ability of a compressed yeast on an equivalent basis. ADY has to be rehydrated with water at around blood heat before it can be used. 

More modern forms of dried yeast are now available, known as instant active dried yeast (IADY) and protected active dried yeast (PADY). These types of yeast can be mixed directly into dry ingredients, making them more effective at gas production than ADY. 

Two separate solutions of Red Star active dry yeast (or other supermarket variety, 20 g) and sodium alginate (5g) each in water (200 mL) were prepared by very slow addition of the respective reagent to the rapidly stirred solvent.

The fermentors used in most regions are stainless steel tanks, although wooden barrels are still widely used in Sauternes and Tokaj. The addition of thiamin (0.6 mg/1), diammonium phosphate (300 mg/1), and active dry yeast (10-15 g/hl) is recommended to achieve an optimal fermentation rate, more rapid yeast propagation and reduce SO2 requirements (Dubourdieu, 1999 Hoersch and Schlotter, 1990).
