Giant Microbes - Beer & Bread (Saccharomyces cerevisiae)

Come and get it! This microbe is a baker, and a brewer, and a scientist to boot. Pretty amazing!

Saccharomyces cervisiae is a fungus known as Baker’s & Brewer’s yeast because it’s used to make bread and ferment alcoholic beverages, like beer and wine. It’s arguably the most important yeast in the world and is naturally found growing on the skins of grapes and other fruits.

Great gift for beer enthusiasts and bakers! Yeast is a model scientific organism and perfect for budding scientists.
