Diammonium Phosphate (DAP) is used as a food additive, for example as a nutrient in yeast cultivation which can be used in wine, food and pharmaceutical industries. It is also an ingredient in compounded bread improvers. Diammonium Phosphate (DAP) is a nutrient for yeast, providing both phosphorus and nitrogen. This strengthens the yeast so fermentation can occur faster and will ensure it continues to completion. This property makes Diammonium Phosphate (DAP) great for processes such as wine and bread making.
