    What Temperature Will Kill Yeast In A Packet?

    So most places advise sticking your yeast packet and scissors in the star san prior to cutting open. I usually make my star san solution with hot water. If I throw that yeast packet in there, will it kill the yeast before I ever even get it into my beer? I ask because I brewed a wheat kit...
