It's getting hot in here so take off all your chromosomes

The yeast will replicate in higher temperatures but too extreme of temperature either way will give not so sexy results.

We're using red grapes in our newly cultivated species - this species or multiple species fermented between 20-30C unlike our previous species which was only for breeding. RL-7-OSIRIS range would have been ideal ferment at 7-16 C. The Red Grapes give us a slightly easier time as raising the temperature is a lot easier than lowering it in the Lab.

Specs for observations tonight

Brix: 11.9% +1.9% since yesterday analysis so well be leaving sugar levels be for the present. 

Sg: 1.048 + 0.008 since yesterday. 

Yeast temp: 28.1 C + 2.4C Since yesterday's analysis it was time for a change.

Elevated the light and enclosed the sample the slightly less direct lighting should ensure better heat distribution.

Developing yeast cells above

A good shot of eloptic yeast cell


The Red areas are yeast cells the blue areas are Bion clusters that have formed from dying yeast. 

Above the red areas are yeast cells the green highlights are budding schools or yeastlings as I call them.
