How Does Sugar Affect Bread Dough? The Effects of Sugar Explained

Let us look at how sugar affects yeast and subsequently bread. Why you should and why you should not use sugar. Sugar is hygroscopic meaning that it attracts water. Salt is also hygroscopic. Yeast needs water to be active. We all know that salt slows down fermentation for this exact reason. It robs the yeast of water. Sugar does the same by pulling moisture ouf through the cell walls of the yeast.
So, in short - sugar will not ‘feed’ the yeast. It will not speed up fermentation. It will only slow it down. You will see a significant decrease in yeast activity starting from around 10% sugar in the dough. But even 5% will slow it down as I demonstrate in the video.

very good video! and good method , clear delivery . a few points , yeast does not make amylase is any significant quantity to make sugar , and only does so after budding a few times ( 24+hrs). The process of converting complex carbohydrates in to simply sugars is a hydraulic in action , (Hydrolysis) It is the water, that do to attractions cleave the glycosidic bonds in the Polysaccharide. what that means for dough is that, with water there will be a slow but steady creation of sugar , more water and more heat the faster it goes, add ,amylase enzymes and it really takes off. Yeast when processed for baking are loaded up on food before freeze drying. they have alot of sugar inside them and will ferment their own stores. yeast will froth just being placed in pure water. By added more sugar to your dough you are reducing the available water to Hydrosis . Further more yeast can make Sucrase an enzyme that converts table sugar ( sucrose a disaccharide - two sugars stuck together) in to two monosaccharides: glucose and fructose, this process takes time and effort for the yeast and is triggered by the presents of sucrose, by adding the table sugar you cause the yeast to make Sucrase rather than just get to work on the food that is already there. lastly and most important , many flours including all purpose flour contain malted barley !!! the malted grain is loaded with amylase and will get right to work making food for the yeast, its not the yeast making food its that malted flour and water :)

Now that is perhaps the most informative comment on this channel. Thank you so much for the explanation. Definitely opened my eyes to a couple of facts. Pinning this so that everyone gets to read it. Cheers 😎

@gmanGman12007 2 года назад

As for unmalted flour, how much barley malt would you recommend spiking it with per 1kg of flour lets Say? Sourdough bread is the purpose or sourdough baguette

@equinoxshadow7190 2 года назад

And kneading dough with bare hands places a small amounts of sweat and oil into the dough. But I am not germophobic, so it does not bother me. As long as the cook/baker washes their hands before getting to work. I do like using some honey and malted barley in some of my bread dough. Now ChainBaker has a large metal bracelet. The bracelet could end up touching the dough, I am not too sure how clean his metal bracelet is? I recommend not wearing any watches, rings or bracelets when cooking.

@ChainBaker 2 года назад

Since I'm kneading with my right hand the bracelet never really touches the dough. Besides, I'm only baking for myself so I don't mind. And I clean that chain regularly. Would never wear it at work where I cook for other people obviously.

@wowman142 Год назад

Hi, yeast metabolic engineer here. I doubt the slowed fermentation when you add sucrose is due to hygroscopic properties. What happens when you add sugar is more likely that the yeast changes its metabolism to prioritize using the sucrose first (it’s a more preferable energy source). When sucrose is present the SUC2 invertase protein is secreted from the yeast into its environment to degrade sucrose (table sugar) into free glucose and fructose, which can be directly eaten by the yeast. This is more efficient than breaking down starch to get glucose. So what is actually happening is that the yeast is focusing on producing the invertase protein, and breaking down sucrose, rather than focusing on breaking down starch. The effect is that your fermentation profile changes which is why your fermentation times change, and in particular: you don’t degrade the starch as fast. This is why you can leave a sugar-rich dough for longer without it becoming a puddle. The gluten is not degraded until much later due to the yeast focusing on using the sucrose first. It may be that hygroscopy plays a role as well, but I think the metabolism is the main culprit

@user-iu4gw9fr1g 2 дня назад

As a brewer I completely agree on the fact that simple sugars are consumed first by bread yeast. Invert sugar is consumed readily as it doesn't require enzymes. Knowing is half the battle

My favourite example of this in history is not to do with a food recipe but it did involve honey! The first recipe for gunpowder used honey and for quite a while honey was still used just bcuz it was used by those who came before so it must be doin somethin. They eventually had some alchemists actually experiment and find that the honey wasnt necessary, nor the birchroot wort, nor any of the other additives beyond the few basic ingredients that actually do all the work.

I can’t believe how much this one tip - leaving out sugar - would fix a chronic problem. I’ve been baking bread for four decades, but I never knew that adding sugar was unnecessary! I have to be gluten-free these days, but leaving out the sugar fixed an ongoing overproofing problem. Thank you!

@mikezetts1 2 года назад

@elonever.2.071 Год назад

Now it makes sense that when I started making dough I was told to boil a white potato in water, let it cool and use that to feed the yeast. I did notice a big difference in the proofing size of the bread but I never understood why. Thanks.

@mohadi7245 2 года назад

We used to add 1-3% sugar to dough to make the bread softer as it brakes the gluten strands, to make the bread tenderer as it retains more water, stays fresh longer due to the water content, and also the bread with sugar reheats much better especially for flat breads.

Hi lily! I'm really bad at baking anytg and just started to like baking recently andddd failed all the times 😂... So how do we determine the percentage? It's the sugar percentage ur talking about, right? And since this video clearly showed that sugar isnt needed, may I know is there any other percentage we need to know? Please teach me all of it hahaha. Last one: errr, why do we need salt? 😅 (clearly a baker-virgin here 😆)

@kiawang6220 Год назад

@@fizakusnin2961 Bread made without salt tastes bland. Optimum amount is 1.8% of the weight of flour. It ranged from 1% to 2.5%. First try 1.8% by weight. If too salty to you then reduce. If not salty enough then add more.

Superb video! Truly enlightening. When using fresh yeast, I always rub it into a spoonful of honey, which turns it into liquid fast. My understanding has always been (from Italian mamas) that the fact it turns into liquid shows the yeast is live. Now, I wonder .... BTW, great to see you starting to get the number of subscribers you deserve. It's about time and thoroughly deserved!

@ChainBaker 2 года назад

Thank you Robin! And thanks for the support :) we're getting there slowly but surely. Well, if it works - it works. But I would personally use water instead of honey. Not all bread requires honey and if used it makes the crust go too dark sometimes when baking, and that too may not be desired at all times. I reckon it would turn into liquid regardless 😁

I also add vegetable oil to mine as it gives more moisture so the bread is less dry. When adding salt to my bread/ rolls, I never go without salt as it is so bland it can't be eaten.

Ohh I've been using sugar to boost the ferment. But it's actually make sense it dont. This channel is such a gem, tysm!

@CrunchyAss 2 года назад

This is definitely the case with brewing. High gravity beer, wine, and mead all ferment slower compared to a lower gravity. There is an osmotic pressure from the sugar that hinders the yeast and stresses them out which could produce off flavours. I know with high gravity mead brewing it's pretty common to only add a portion of the honey at first and let the yeast ferment through 2/3 of it or so before adding the rest of the honey.
