Bakers yeast to start tea?

[strategy26]

Plain activated yeast from the grocer. Would this start the right kind of biological activity or would it make wine?

Anyone? I've searched for this on google and on several cannabis forums and can't find anything on it. My bucket of organic ingredients is going on 3 days and still no foam. Is anything happening if there's no foam?

Do you have an air stone going? You need one.
If the recipe for your organic tea calls for yeats, any sort of active yeast will do.

You can't make ethanol without sugar, yeasts or no, btw.

I have an aquarium pump working. And I have made wine so I know about the fermentation/sugar thing. I wonder about the molasses. It might have makeup to create wine? Maybe a couple of tablespoons isn't enough to worry about or will ferment and the alcohol will evaporate from the air stone? Half the time the ingredients I'm using (alfalfa, molasses, composted cow manure) will start foaming themselves. Anyhow, if the yeast wont hurt I'm going to try it. I should send away for some good fungus starter. Thx
