The resulting clones are transferred to sterile flasks with a culture medium and incubated. The content of these flasks are transferred to stainless steel tanks to increase their biomass. 2. Cultivation  The nutritional yeast is cultivated inside the stainless steel fermentation tanks for seven days with a control temperature, pH and “diet” of nutrients such as oxygen, water and glucose from either sugar cane or beet molasses.  3. Harvesting After seven days, the resulting liquid form of nutritional yeast is passed through a centrafuse to create nutritional yeast cream, washing away the culture medium and concentrating the yeast. This is stored at a low temperature to ensure the yeast is inactive. 4. Fortification  The nutritional yeast cream is pasteurized, and fortified, typically with b12. This results in an inactive yeast with an enhanced nutritional profile. 5. Drying  To dry the nutritional yeast it is passed through a rotary filter, and vacuum filter before being cut to size.  6....
