Application of Probiotics in Brewing Industry

Wine and beer have always been a part of our social life. The production of both types of wine products requires fermentation by yeasts. Saccharomyces strains are effective probiotics with a wide range of applications in the brewing industry. Creative Enzymes offers a selection of probiotic yeasts that can be used to produce a variety of fermented foods and beverages, enhancing their nutritional and organoleptic properties and bringing consumers more products with healthy activity.

Probiotics in Brewing Industry

Probiotic yeasts play an important role in the winemaking process, as the production of enzymes leads to desirable biochemical reactions. This is evident in the production of ethanol in wine and beer.

• Wine making

The fermentation of grape juice and the production of quality wine is a complex biochemical process involving the interaction of enzymes from many different microbial species, but mainly yeasts and lactic acid bacteria. Yeasts are predominant in wine and carry out the alcoholic fermentation, while lactic acid bacteria are responsible for malolactic fermentation. Yeast and bacteria consume sugars, acidic amino acids and other compounds, resulting in a microbially safe, stable and enjoyable beverage. This is because yeast has the ability to ferment alcohol and give the product sensory qualities such as taste, flavor, aroma, color, tannin and glycerin content.

• Beer brewing

Microorganisms play a crucial role in determining the main characteristics of beer. Among them, yeast is the main microorganism in beer production. Yeast impacts the quality and overall appearance of the foam, color, clarity, and haze stability of the beer. In addition, yeast also affects the flavor, the gushing- how fast and high of foam will form when it is poured, and the overall wholesomeness of the taste. In some types of beer, such as sours, bacteria also play a key role in acidifying the drink and giving rise to flavours and aromas not produced (or produced in smaller portions) by yeasts.
