Tips
- Remember our sweet whey powder can be used to add binding to any mix. Start by adding 5% – 50g per kg mix, you can then adjust accordingly. Adding more will increase the binding, vice versa adding less will decrease the break down time. This is to be added to the dry mix, then mixed very well before wetting.
- We recommend slowly adding water/liquid additives to any mix, be careful not to add too much water. A nice fluffy texture that still breaks down is ideal. Too much water can make a mix go hard. More water can always be added if required, but it can’t be removed.
- 1L pump spray bottle is ideal for wetting mixes, also great for mixing liquid additives with water before wetting mix.
- Once desired texture is achieved keep in an air tight bucket/container, this helps stop it from drying out.

Our Soluble Pea Protein 82% is a premium food-grade, high-protein and water-soluble pea protein, offering an exciting ingredient for modern fishing bait, boilie and aquaculture formulations.
Containing an impressive 82% protein, this refined pea protein provides a highly concentrated source of plant-based protein while also offering excellent solubility. This makes it particularly interesting for bait formulations where both nutritional value and the release of soluble attraction into the water are important.
A Highly Soluble Protein for Fishing Bait
Unlike our coarser 75% Feed Grade Pea Protein, this premium food-grade version is much finer and significantly more soluble.
When incorporated into boilies and other fishing baits, its soluble fractions can begin releasing into the surrounding water, helping create a readily available food signal around the bait.
This makes Soluble Pea Protein 82% particularly useful when formulating high-attract boilies, hookbaits, pastes, groundbaits, stick mixes and other soluble bait products.
A Sustainable Alternative Protein Source
Pea protein is becoming increasingly popular throughout the aquaculture, animal nutrition and fishing bait industries as manufacturers search for sustainable alternative protein sources.
Its high protein content and useful amino acid profile make it an excellent ingredient for combining with fishmeals, marine proteins and other nutritional ingredients. It can also be used to replace a proportion of the fishmeal within certain formulations, helping diversify the overall protein profile of the finished bait.
For bait makers, this provides an interesting way of introducing a high-quality plant protein without sacrificing overall protein content, while its solubility offers an additional attraction benefit.
Key Benefits
- 82% protein

BetaCel-Yeast® (Premium)
Price range: £6.99 through £2,450.00***THIS PRODUCT IS NOT AVAILABLE IN YOUR COUNTRY***This product has multiple variants. The options may be chosen on the product pageBetaCel Yeast® – Premium Deactivated Brewers’ Yeast Powder
NEW & IMPROVED – Higher Protein, Premium Brewing Heritage & Better Value
BetaCel Yeast® is our new premium-quality deactivated brewers’ yeast powder, produced from 100% pure Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Sourced from a global leading producer of yeast powders and extracts, BetaCel Yeast® is derived from genuine traditional brewing using malted barley and hops, providing an excellent nutritional profile and valuable naturally occurring brewing compounds.
Following our own comparative testing against our long-established Brocacel® Yeast, BetaCel Yeast® came out on top, offering a higher measured protein content, a more pleasant overall taste in our own comparisons, distinctive brewing-derived characteristics and a cost saving for our customers.
Why Have We Introduced BetaCel Yeast®?
Brocacel® has always been a very good-quality yeast ingredient, and one we have been happy to supply for many years. However, at AA Baits, we are constantly looking for ways to improve the quality and value of the ingredients we offer.
Following comparative laboratory testing, we received the following protein results:
- Brocacel® Yeast – 40.9% crude protein
- BetaCel Yeast® – 45.8% crude protein
These are the actual results returned from the samples tested. As with any natural ingredient, nutritional values can vary slightly between production batches.
This means BetaCel Yeast® demonstrated approximately 12% more protein than Brocacel® in our comparative testing.
Alongside the higher protein result, BetaCel Yeast® offers a cost saving, making it an exciting addition to our range.
Understanding the Bitterness Levels – Why Is This Important?
One of the interesting findings from our comparative laboratory testing was the difference in measured bitterness levels between the two yeast products.
Our results showed:
- Brocacel® Yeast – 20 BU/100g dry matter
- BetaCel Yeast® – 100 BU/100g dry matter
This means BetaCel Yeast® recorded five times the measured bitterness of Brocacel® in our laboratory analysis.
However, it’s important to understand what these figures actually mean, particularly when it comes to taste, palatability and bait quality.
At AA Baits, we fully appreciate that taste and palatability are extremely important when developing high-quality fishing baits. The last thing we want is to introduce an ingredient that negatively affects the taste or acceptance of our formulations.
For this reason, we carried out our own direct taste comparisons between Brocacel® and BetaCel Yeast®.
Despite the difference in laboratory bitterness readings, we were unable to detect any noticeable additional bitterness in BetaCel Yeast®. In fact, we found BetaCel Yeast® to have a much more pleasant initial taste and aftertaste, making it our preferred product in our own side-by-side comparisons. We also tested other yeast powders that recorded zero measurable bitterness and had not been produced through traditional brewing using malted barley and hops. Despite having no measurable bitterness, we found both their initial taste and lingering aftertaste to be extremely unpleasant.
This highlights an important distinction: a laboratory bitterness measurement does not necessarily translate directly into how bitter an ingredient tastes, particularly when it is incorporated at relatively low inclusion levels within a complete bait formulation.
So Why Have We Highlighted the Bitterness Reading?
The reason we’ve included this information isn’t because we believe a more bitter bait is necessarily better. Instead, we consider it an interesting analytical characteristic that helps us understand the brewing origin and composition of the yeast.
BetaCel Yeast® originates from genuine traditional brewing using malted barley and hops, rather than simply being yeast grown on alternative fermentation substrates.
During the brewing process, hops contribute naturally occurring bitter compounds, including humulone (alpha acid), lupulone (beta acid) and related substances.
The bitterness level of brewery-derived yeast can be influenced by the quantity, variety and bittering intensity of the hops used, alongside the brewing and production processes themselves.
The higher bitterness reading in BetaCel Yeast® is consistent with its origins in a hop-rich brewing process and reflects an interesting difference in the brewing-derived characteristics of the two yeast products.
These hop-derived compounds are also of particular interest because of their recognised antioxidant and bacteriostatic properties under certain conditions.
Although the bitterness reading alone cannot establish the exact concentrations of these compounds or determine the quality of the original beer, it provides another useful insight into the characteristics of BetaCel Yeast® and its genuine brewing heritage.
What Does This Mean for Bait Makers?
Ultimately, what matters to us is the overall quality, nutritional value, taste and suitability of an ingredient, rather than any single laboratory figure.
Our own taste testing found BetaCel Yeast® to have a more pleasant overall taste than Brocacel®, with no noticeable increase in bitterness, despite its higher analytical reading.
It’s also worth remembering that brewers’ yeast is normally used as just one component of a complete bait formulation. Its contribution to the finished bait will depend on the inclusion rate and the other ingredients used.
For us, the bitterness measurement is simply another piece of analytical information that complements the more important advantages we have identified:
- Higher Protein Content – 45.8% crude protein compared with 40.9% for Brocacel® in our comparative testing.
- Excellent Taste Profile – Preferred in our own side-by-side taste comparisons, with no noticeable additional bitterness.
- Genuine Brewery Origin – Derived from traditional brewing using malted barley and hops.
- Naturally Occurring Nutrients – Including MOS, beta-glucans, nucleotides, amino acids, vitamins and minerals.
- Better Value for Money – Offering a cost saving compared with Brocacel®.
Genuine Brewery-Derived Yeast – Why the Source Matters
Not all yeast powders are produced in the same way, and we believe the origin of a yeast ingredient is just as important as its nutritional specification.
BetaCel Yeast® is sourced from genuine traditional brewing using malted barley and hops, rather than simply being yeast grown on an alternative fermentation substrate.
During the brewing process, the yeast comes into contact with naturally occurring compounds from both the malted barley and hops, contributing to its distinctive composition.
This can include valuable hop-derived bitter compounds alongside the nutritional components naturally present in the yeast itself.
Some yeast powders are produced using alternative fermentation substrates and different manufacturing processes. These can still be useful ingredients, but their composition may differ significantly from genuine brewery-derived yeast.
For this reason, we believe it is important to understand not just the protein content of a yeast powder, but also where it comes from, how it is produced and what naturally occurring compounds it contains.
Why Bitterness and Gluten Are Interesting Indicators
Two particularly interesting characteristics when assessing brewery-derived yeast are its measured bitterness and the presence of gluten.
Traditional brewing commonly uses malted barley, which naturally contains gluten-related proteins, while hops contribute characteristic bitter compounds.
When both are detected in a brewers’ yeast powder, they can provide useful supporting evidence of its brewing origin.
However, neither measurement alone proves how a yeast has been produced, which is why manufacturer traceability and confirmation of the production process are equally important.
In the case of BetaCel Yeast®, we have confirmation that the product originates from traditional brewing using malted barley and hops.
Combined with its measured bitterness, this gives us further confidence in the origin and characteristics of the ingredient we are supplying.
Naturally Rich in Valuable Yeast Nutrients
BetaCel Yeast® contains a range of naturally occurring nutritional components that make deactivated brewers’ yeast a valuable ingredient in modern bait formulations.
These include:
- MOS (Mannan Oligosaccharides) – Naturally occurring yeast cell wall components valued for their prebiotic properties.
- Beta-Glucans – Yeast cell wall polysaccharides recognised for their potential role in supporting normal immune function.
- Nucleotides – Important nutritional compounds involved in cellular activity, growth and tissue development.
- Amino Acids – Valuable protein-building components that contribute to the nutritional profile of a bait.
- B Vitamins – Naturally occurring vitamins involved in metabolism and nutrient utilisation.
- Minerals & Trace Elements – Including phosphorus, iron, zinc and other essential micronutrients.
- Hop-Derived Compounds – Including humulone, lupulone and related bitter substances associated with the brewing process.
Premium Quality & Specialist Production
BetaCel Yeast® is manufactured by a global leading producer of yeast powders and extracts, using specialist production and processing technology.
The combination of genuine brewery-derived raw material, carefully controlled processing and an excellent nutritional specification makes BetaCel Yeast® a premium ingredient for use in boilies, groundbaits, stick mixes and other specialist fishing bait formulations.

£7.49 – £11,033.33Price range: £7.49 through £11,033.33
SupremeCel-Yeast® (Premium)
Description
SupremeCel-Yeast® – Premium High-Nucleotide Hydrolysed Yeast Powder
ADVANCED YEAST NUTRITION – 50% Protein, Naturally Rich in Nucleotides, Nucleosides & Bioactive Yeast Compounds
SupremeCel-Yeast® is our new premium-quality hydrolysed yeast powder, produced from 100% pure brewers’ yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) using a specialist hydrolysis process designed to release and make accessible the valuable nutritional components naturally present within yeast cells.
Unlike conventional deactivated brewers’ yeast powders, SupremeCel-Yeast® undergoes a carefully controlled hydrolysis process that breaks down the yeast’s natural cellular structure, allowing its individual components to become more readily accessible.
The result is a highly specialised yeast ingredient containing 50% crude protein, naturally occurring nucleotides, nucleosides, nucleic acids, amino acids, beta-glucans, mannan oligosaccharides (MOS) and other valuable yeast-derived compounds.
With its impressive nutritional specification and advanced processing, SupremeCel-Yeast® represents an exciting addition to our range of premium ingredients for modern carp bait formulations.
What Makes SupremeCel-Yeast® Different?
Not all yeast powders are the same.
Conventional deactivated brewers’ yeast is already an excellent nutritional ingredient, providing protein, amino acids, vitamins, minerals and valuable yeast cell wall components.
However, much of this nutrition remains contained within the yeast’s natural cellular structure.
SupremeCel-Yeast® takes yeast processing a stage further.
Through specialist hydrolysis, the natural yeast cell structure is broken down, releasing components from within the cells and increasing their accessibility.
This is particularly interesting because yeast naturally contains a wide range of biologically important compounds, including nucleic acids, nucleotides, nucleosides, amino acids and other nitrogen-containing substances.
By making these naturally occurring components more accessible, SupremeCel-Yeast® offers a different nutritional profile and functionality compared with conventional deactivated yeast powders.
For bait makers looking to incorporate advanced nutritional ingredients into their formulations, this makes SupremeCel-Yeast® a particularly interesting option.
Naturally Rich in Nucleotides – Why Are They Important?
One of the most exciting characteristics of SupremeCel-Yeast® is its naturally occurring nucleotide and nucleic acid content.
Nucleotides are essential biological compounds found in all living organisms. They form the building blocks of DNA and RNA and play important roles in cellular metabolism, growth, tissue development and regeneration.
They are particularly interesting in fish nutrition because they are involved in several important physiological processes.
These include:
While fish can synthesise nucleotides naturally, dietary nucleotides can provide an additional source of these important compounds.
This is particularly relevant during periods of rapid growth, reproduction, stress and increased physiological demand.
An Impressive Nucleic Acid Specification
According to the manufacturer’s specification, SupremeCel-Yeast® contains:
12% nucleic acid protein (expressed as a proportion of crude protein).
This is a particularly interesting characteristic of the ingredient and supports its positioning as a specialist yeast product containing naturally occurring nucleic acid components.
It is important to distinguish this analytical measurement from a direct measurement of free nucleotides. The 12% figure refers specifically to the manufacturer’s stated nucleic acid protein value, rather than 12% free nucleotides in the finished powder.
Nevertheless, it provides a valuable indication of the nucleic acid-related fraction within this premium hydrolysed yeast.
For bait makers interested in the nutritional potential of nucleotides and related yeast compounds, SupremeCel-Yeast® offers an exciting ingredient to explore.
Hydrolysed Yeast – Why the Processing Matters
The process used to manufacture a yeast ingredient can be just as important as its nutritional composition.
In conventional deactivated yeast, the yeast cells have been rendered inactive, but much of their original cellular structure remains intact.
Hydrolysis involves breaking down components of that structure, allowing the contents of the yeast cells to become more accessible.
During this process, naturally occurring cellular materials can be released, including nucleic acid-related compounds, soluble nitrogenous substances and other valuable yeast components.
This is particularly interesting for fish nutrition because the availability and digestibility of nutrients can influence how effectively they are utilised.
SupremeCel-Yeast® is designed to provide a readily accessible supply of naturally occurring yeast nutrients, making it an excellent candidate for use in high-quality nutritional bait formulations.
However, hydrolysis does not automatically mean that every nutrient is fully digested or absorbed. The extent of hydrolysis and resulting nutritional availability depend on the manufacturing process and the individual compounds involved.
50% Crude Protein – An Excellent Nutritional Profile
In addition to its specialist hydrolysed composition, SupremeCel-Yeast® provides an impressive 50% crude proteinaccording to the manufacturer’s specification.
Protein is a fundamental nutritional component in carp bait formulation, supplying nitrogen-containing compounds and amino acids that contribute to the overall nutritional value of the finished bait.
Yeast proteins are particularly interesting because of their amino acid composition and the additional nutritional substances naturally associated with yeast.
The manufacturer’s specification also identifies:
Lysine and methionine are essential amino acids, meaning fish must obtain adequate quantities through their diet.
Both play important roles in protein synthesis, growth and normal metabolic function.
The combination of high crude protein, essential amino acids and naturally occurring nucleic acid-related compounds makes SupremeCel-Yeast® an interesting addition to sophisticated nutritional bait formulations.
Naturally Occurring MOS & Beta-Glucans
Another important feature of SupremeCel-Yeast® is the presence of valuable yeast cell wall components.
These include mannan oligosaccharides (MOS) and beta-glucans, both naturally associated with the cell walls of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Mannan Oligosaccharides (MOS)
MOS are carbohydrate structures found in yeast cell walls and are widely investigated for their potential prebiotic properties.
In aquaculture nutrition, yeast-derived MOS have been studied for their possible role in supporting intestinal health, microbial balance and normal digestive function.
Beta-Glucans
Beta-glucans are naturally occurring polysaccharides recognised for their potential immunomodulatory properties.
They have attracted considerable interest in aquaculture nutrition because of their interaction with innate immune responses in fish and crustaceans.
Together, MOS and beta-glucans contribute to the nutritional complexity of SupremeCel-Yeast®, providing additional value beyond its protein content alone.
It is this combination of internal yeast cell components and valuable cell wall compounds that makes hydrolysed yeast such an interesting specialist ingredient.
Naturally Contains Glutathione – A Valuable Antioxidant Compound
One of the particularly interesting features of the SupremeCel-Yeast® specification is its naturally occurring glutathione content.
The manufacturer’s analytical information identifies:
Glutathione – 600mg per 100g
Glutathione is a naturally occurring compound made from three amino acids: glutamate, cysteine and glycine.
It plays an important role in cellular antioxidant systems and is involved in protecting cells against oxidative stress.
Glutathione also participates in a variety of normal metabolic and detoxification processes within living organisms.
Its presence adds another interesting dimension to the nutritional profile of SupremeCel-Yeast®.
Although the glutathione content of an ingredient does not establish a direct antioxidant benefit in finished fishing bait, it is a valuable naturally occurring constituent and further demonstrates the complexity of this premium yeast product.
Naturally Contains Choline
SupremeCel-Yeast® also contains naturally occurring choline.
The manufacturer’s specification identifies:
Choline – 320mg per 100g
Choline is an important nutrient involved in normal cellular function, lipid metabolism and the formation of phospholipids found in cell membranes.
It is also a precursor of acetylcholine, a compound involved in nerve signalling.
Choline is of nutritional interest in fish diets, particularly in relation to normal growth, metabolism and lipid utilisation.
The presence of naturally occurring choline adds to the broad nutritional profile of SupremeCel-Yeast®.
Why Is SupremeCel-Yeast® Interesting for Carp Bait Formulations?
When developing a high-quality carp bait, we believe it is important to consider much more than crude protein percentages alone.
A successful nutritional formulation brings together a range of ingredients with complementary characteristics, including protein sources, amino acids, soluble compounds, lipids, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals.
SupremeCel-Yeast® offers a particularly interesting combination of these nutritional characteristics.
Its hydrolysed structure provides access to a wide range of naturally occurring yeast components, while its high protein content contributes valuable nitrogenous nutrition.
The presence of nucleic acid-related compounds, MOS, beta-glucans, glutathione and choline further distinguishes it from more conventional yeast ingredients.
Hydrolysed yeast ingredients are also of interest in aquatic feeds because some of their soluble components may contribute to feed palatability and chemical stimulation.
For carp bait makers, this makes SupremeCel-Yeast® a promising ingredient for evaluation in formulations where nutritional quality and the availability of yeast-derived compounds are important.
SupremeCel-Yeast® is not simply another brewers’ yeast powder. It is a specialist hydrolysed yeast ingredient offering a more advanced approach to incorporating yeast nutrition into carp bait.
SupremeCel-Yeast® vs BetaCel Yeast® – What’s the Difference?
Although both products originate from brewers’ yeast, they have different characteristics and intended roles.
BetaCel Yeast® is our premium deactivated brewers’ yeast powder, sourced from genuine traditional brewing using malted barley and hops.
It offers an excellent nutritional profile, naturally occurring brewing compounds and the distinctive bitterness associated with hop-derived substances.
SupremeCel-Yeast®, on the other hand, is a specialist hydrolysed brewers’ yeast designed to provide greater accessibility of naturally occurring yeast cell components.
Its principal selling points are its advanced hydrolysed composition, 50% crude protein and the presence of valuable nucleic acid-related compounds.
Both are excellent ingredients, but they offer different characteristics.
Where BetaCel Yeast® provides a high-quality, traditional brewery-derived nutritional ingredient, SupremeCel-Yeast® offers a more specialised option for bait makers interested in hydrolysed yeast nutrition.
Rather than replacing BetaCel Yeast®, SupremeCel-Yeast® complements it, giving customers another option when developing premium bait formulations.
SupremeCel-Yeast® – Typical Nutritional Specification
The following figures are taken from the manufacturer’s technical information.
These values are supplied by the manufacturer and may vary naturally between production batches.
Key Benefits of SupremeCel-Yeast®
Premium Quality & Specialist Production
SupremeCel-Yeast® is manufactured using specialist yeast hydrolysis technology, designed to release the naturally occurring nutritional components of brewers’ yeast.
The finished product is a finely ground, light-brown powder, making it convenient to incorporate into a wide range of dry bait formulations.
Unlike conventional yeast powders that are primarily valued for their protein, vitamin and mineral contributions, SupremeCel-Yeast® has been selected for its combination of high protein content, hydrolysed cellular components and naturally occurring bioactive compounds.
This makes it an exciting option for bait makers who want to explore more specialised nutritional ingredients.
The AA Baits Commitment to Quality
At AA Baits, we’re constantly looking for ways to improve and expand our range of high-quality bait-making ingredients.
We believe that selecting the right raw materials is one of the most important aspects of developing an effective bait formulation.
That means looking beyond basic nutritional figures and taking the time to understand how an ingredient is produced, what it contains and how it can contribute to the finished bait.
Our introduction of SupremeCel-Yeast® reflects this approach.
We already offer excellent conventional brewers’ yeast products, including our premium BetaCel Yeast®, but we recognise that different yeast processing methods can produce ingredients with very different nutritional characteristics.
By introducing a specialist hydrolysed yeast, we can now offer our customers an additional option for incorporating naturally occurring yeast nutrients into their bait formulations.
With 50% crude protein, naturally occurring nucleic acid-related compounds, MOS, beta-glucans, glutathione and choline, we believe SupremeCel-Yeast® is an exciting addition to our premium ingredient range.
For bait makers who take nutrition seriously and want to explore the benefits of advanced yeast processing, SupremeCel-Yeast® is well worth considering.
