At Wilderness Trail Distillery for example, we use the same yeast strain to make Bourbon whiskies as we do for our rum and vodka. Ferm Solutions, as well as other companies that supply yeast, have already selected excellent distilling strains; so the slight nuances from one strain to the next are really up to the producer to decide which one is the best for a particular application.
Then, once you establish a baseline on performance and flavor, you might choose to switch to a different strain and see for yourself what slight changes that will make in your final product. This strain has excellent temperature tolerance and can ferment to completion in as little as two days, producing an award-winning distillate.

That said, I do get a nice, clean neutral spirit out of the still. The 48 hr fermentation claims of the turbo yeast are a bit misleading I would say as it takes a full 5 days at 28c to achieve full ferment.
I am going to try the bread yeast when it is available covid homebakers have sucked up all the supply in my area , I have a question, Did you add any yeast nutrient to the bakers yeast? Great read!!
I never gave bread yeast any credit for a whiskey. Rightfully so, never gave turbo any credit either. I like the champagne yeast for mead and for my late friend will distill a large batch down to a brandy. I like a whiskey mash of corn, 2-row and rye.
I think i will go out on a limb and try the bread yeast. I appreciate the effort!! If you are going to run a still, may as well make something nice…. Pete Conklin, 12 weeks? What is your brix level before adding yeast? Might need to add some sugar for the yeast to transform or use more yeast. To all those asking about how much yeast to use. Yeast multiplies. Yeast multiplies faster with more sugar and warmer environments. Sorry if this is a stupid question, I am just curious.
Why is it the cold weather prevented them from distilling but not fermenting the mash? I would have thought it would be the other way around, no? I read your post, the way of providing the information is awesome. Thanks for sharing this type of information, great work. Yeast Substitute. There has been a lot of interest in his stuff on other forums- seems like he might work at Jack Daniel and gets some special stuff.
Also, make sure your temps are above 70 f for best results. This is a tough time of year if you live up North and don,t have a heated fermentor.
I use 18 pounds raw cane sugar aka turbinado sugar in 5 gallons of filtered spring water and 1 packet g of turbo yeast for a great wash. I then run the wash through an thread count pillowcase as I pour the wash into my 8 gallon stainless still with plate column. I generally get a gallon of proof that I run through a berkey filter with 4 carbon elements.
Really makes a smooth, slightly sweet product. All the still components are codenamed and I am very pleased with their products and service. Next project is now to incorporate a dephlegmator. I experiment with lots of commercial and naturally occurring yeasts over the years.
Also one of the cheapest. My batch is 6Kg raw sugar, 1 Litre molasses horse Feed quality and fill up with hot water to equal 30 litres total. Wait a day or so for it to cool between c then add 2 level tablespoons of yeast and mix in. To speed up fermentation, I Incorporated a small 12v recirculating pump which reduced the normal time to around days depending on ambient temperature.
Add your own flavours or just mix with sodas or flavoured milk shake vigorously for a few seconds to prevent congealing. So around 20 times cheaper. A great page on a often overlooked topic. To throw my two cents in, I believe turbo yeasts receive unfair criticism. I have used Turbo yeasts for years and never had an issue, mainly because I follow the instructions on the pack! I am always dumbfounded when people do not follow instructions and then complain about the results!
