Inactive Nutritional Yeast for Plant-Based Meat
Inactive nutritional yeast for plant-based meat is a dried Saccharomyces cerevisiae ingredient used for savory flavor, protein contribution, and process-friendly solids in vegan meat analogues. ArtemisYeast supplies ART-NY-034 in 10 kg foil-lined sacks for manufacturers requiring consistent lot documentation, stable dry storage, and export-ready packaging. This product is inactive and non-leavening; it is selected for formulation value rather than live-cell functionality. Wholesale pricing on request is available through the bulk inquiry workflow.

Overview
ART-NY-034 is an inactive Saccharomyces cerevisiae nutritional yeast ingredient designed for plant-based meat systems, vegan prepared foods, dry seasoning blends, and supplement-style food formats where yeast-derived solids are required. It contributes a rounded savory profile, natural amino acid background, and a light tan to golden color that can support cooked, roasted, or broth-like flavor direction without adding leavening activity. For category context, see our nutritional yeast supply range.
Typical technical targets include moisture not more than 7.0%, protein approximately 45-52% on dry basis, ash typically below 8.0%, and particle size commonly 60-80 mesh unless otherwise agreed by specification. The ingredient is heat-inactivated, with viable yeast controlled as a microbiological quality parameter rather than a performance feature. Naturally occurring yeast cell components may include beta-glucan and mannan fractions; exact values are confirmed by lot-specific certificate where required. The 10 kg foil-lined sack format helps protect dry powder from humidity during storage, export consolidation, and plant-side handling.
Applications
- Plant-based meat patties, mince, and nuggets: supports savory depth in pea, soy, wheat, mycoprotein, and blended protein matrices; typical use level is formulation-dependent and validated by sensory trials.
- Vegan sausage and deli-style products: useful in spice premixes, binder systems, and fat-emulsion seasoning where a consistent dry yeast powder is preferred.
- Broth, gravy, and cooking bases: contributes yeast-derived umami notes for meat-free culinary bases, instant sauce powders, and ready-meal components.
- Seasoning and coating systems: compatible with salt, hydrolyzed vegetable protein alternatives, mushroom powders, onion, garlic, smoke flavor, and natural colors, subject to local labeling rules.
- Food supplement and nutrition formats: may be used where inactive Saccharomyces cerevisiae is specified as a yeast-derived food ingredient; positioning, claims, and labeling should be reviewed by the buyer’s regulatory team.
Storage and Handling
Store unopened sacks in a cool, dry, odor-free warehouse, ideally below 25°C and below 65% relative humidity. Keep away from steam lines, wet cleaning zones, strong aromatics, and direct sunlight. Once opened, reclose the inner liner tightly or transfer to a sealed food-grade container to reduce moisture pickup and caking. Under recommended storage conditions, typical shelf life is 18-24 months from production date, subject to the final specification and shipping lane.
As a dry powder, ART-NY-034 should be handled with standard dust-control practices, including local extraction where bulk dumping is performed. Pre-blending into salt, starch, protein isolate, or spice carriers can improve dispersion before hydration. Because this ingredient is inactive, it should not be used where dough rise, fermentation gas production, or live yeast counts are required.
Quality and Documentation
ArtemisYeast supplies ART-NY-034 for B2B procurement with specification review, lot traceability, and certificate of analysis available on request. Typical documentation may include CoA, allergen statement, food-grade declaration, non-GMO statement where applicable, vegan suitability statement, packing list, and safety data information for industrial handling. HACCP-aligned manufacturing controls and food-safety certification documentation such as ISO 22000, FSSC 22000, Halal, or Kosher may be provided when available for the producing site and lot.
Microbiological parameters, heavy metals, particle size, moisture, protein, and sensory conformance can be aligned before purchase order placement.
