Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Both beer and distilled beverages are characterised by the presence of alcohol, which is always derived by means of fermentation. In order to produce the vast variety of quality beers and distilled beverages currently available, a very large array of fermentative organisms is utilised, either as pure cultures or mixed cultures. On the one hand, fermentation can be managed through careful selection of suitable strains, while on the other hand, through providing the most suitable conditions under which fermentation can be carried out. In addition to fermentation-related topics, we also welcome well-constructed manuscripts that deal with any form of waste valorisation of by-products from the brewing and distilling industries.
This Special Issue of Fermentation aims to disseminate recent innovative research regarding all aspects of fermentation as it applies to the brewing and distilling industries, as well as authoritative reviews that compile information from previously published material. Topics include (and are not limited to): Yeast and bacterial physiology as it applies to brewing and distilling; starter culture management; mixed culture fermentations; spoilage; spontaneous fermentations; yeast genetics; strain improvements; process intensification; fermentation vessels (e.g., wood vs. stainless steel); fermentation technology; fermentation management; hygiene and sanitation; waste valorisation; etc.
