Yeast: Yeast is the fungus that metabolizes the sugar (maltose) in the wort into ethyl alcohol and carbon dioxide (CO2).
There are two kinds of yeast (Saccharomyces - From Medieval Latin saccharum, sugar + Greek mukēs – fungus) used in fermenting brew: Ale Yeast: (Saccharomyces Cerevisiae) An aerobic (with air) yeast that needs contact with oxygen to ferment, so it forms a thick layer at the top of the wort. It also works best when the ambient temperature is between 60-65F. Its fermentation also produces Esters. These are flavors that give the impression of apples, pears and, sometimes plums.
Lager yeast: (Saccharomyces carlsbergensis, syn. of Saccharomyces pastorianus) A anaerobic (without air) yeast that ferments at the bottom of the wort and functions best at temperatures between 35-40F. It produces few esters and takes much longer than ale yeast to complete fermentation.
In a brewery, the fermentation process is in two steps. The "primary" fermentation converts most of the maltose to ethyl alcohol and CO2. The "secondary" fermentation finishes metabolizing the remaining sugar into the CO2 necessary to give the beer effervescence.
In traditional beer making there is also a "priming" that restarts the last of the fermentation in the bottles or kegs. This priming assures that the beer has natural carbonation. In mass-produced commercial beers and ales, the carbonation is injected into the beer when it is bottled or kegged.

Product Description: 1007 German Ale Yeast: True top cropping yeast, low ester formation, broad temperature range affects styles. Will ferment cold; 55° F range, producing lager characteristics including sulfur production. Style is noted for dry, crisp characteristics. Fermentation at higher temperatures (70-75° F) may produce some mild fruitiness. Extremely poor flocculating yeast, generally remains significantly in suspension without treatment or filtration. Pad filtration is often difficult. Brewer’s benefit from DE filtration or centrifuging. Maturation: Beers mature fairly rapid, even when cold fermentation is used. Low or no detectable diacetyl, alcohol tolerance approximately 11% ABV. Flocculation - low; apparent attenuation 73-77%. (55-68° F)—Alts, American Wheats.
