Abstract
The diversification of beer flavor is becoming increasingly popular, especially in the field of non-alcoholic beers, where sales are growing steadily. While flavor substances of traditional beers can largely be traced back to defined secondary metabolites, the production of non-alcoholic beers with non-Saccharomyces yeasts generates novel fruity flavors, some of which cannot yet be assigned to specific flavor substances. In a recently published study, besides pear, cool mint sweets, and banana-like flavor, distinctive red berry and apple flavors were perceived in a non-alcoholic beer fermented with the yeast strain Cyberlindnera saturnus TUM 247, whose secondary metabolites were to be elucidated in this study. The trials were carried out using response surface methodology to examine the fermentation properties of the yeast strain and to optimize the beer with maximum fruitiness but minimal off-flavors and ethanol content. It turned out that a low pitching rate, a moderate fermentation temperature, and an original gravity of 10.5 °P gave the optimal parameters. Qualitative analysis of the secondary metabolites, in addition to standard analysis for traditional beers, was first performed using headspace-gas chromatography with olfactometry. (E)-β-damascenone emerged as the decisive substance for the red berry and apple flavor and so this substance was then quantitated. Although (E)-β-damascenone is a well-known secondary metabolite in beer and this substance is associated with apple or cooked apple- and berry-like flavors, it has not yet been reported as a main flavor component in non-alcoholic beers.

Abstract
The aim of this present study was to optimize the fermentation conditions (time and temperature) of amasi (a Southern African fermented dairy product) using response surface methodology (RSM), and to determine the physicochemical properties, as well as the microbial composition, using next generation sequencing. Fermentation time and temperature were optimized to produce different amasi samples and different parameters, including pH, total soluble solids (TSS), total titratable acids (TTA), and consistency. All the variables studied were found to show significant (p ≤ 0.05) changes with increasing fermentation time and temperature. Numerical optimization was used to obtain the optimal fermentation conditions for amasi; based on RSM, it was 32 °C for 140 h, while with k-means clustering, it was 25 °C for 120 h. Under both conditions for the optimal samples, the pH reduced from 6.64 to 3.99, TTA increased from 0.02 to 0.11 (% lactic acid), TSS decreased from 9.47 to 6.67 °Brix, and the consistency decreased from 23 to 15.23 cm/min. Most of the identified bacteria were linked to lactic acid bacteria, with the family Lactobacillaceae being the most predominant in amasi, while in raw milk, Prevotellaceae was the most abundant. The fermentation conditions (time and temperature) had a significant influence on the parameters investigated in this study. Results of this study could provide information for the commercialization of quality amasi.

Sci Rep 2021; 11:20626. [PMID: 34663842 PMCID: PMC8523540 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-00097-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/17/2021] [Accepted: 09/28/2021] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Bioprocess development for umqombothi (a South African traditional beer) as with other traditional beer products can be complex. As a result, beverage bioprocess development is shifting towards new systematic protocols of experimentation. Traditional optimization methods such as response surface methodology (RSM) require further comparison with a relevant machine learning system. Artificial neural network (ANN) is an effective non-linear multivariate tool in bioprocessing, with enormous generalization, prediction, and validation capabilities. ANN bioprocess development and optimization of umqombothi were done using RSM and ANN. The optimum condition values were 1.1 h, 29.3 °C, and 25.9 h for cooking time, fermentation temperature, and fermentation time, respectively. RSM was an effective tool for the optimization of umqombothi's bioprocessing parameters shown by the coefficient of determination (R2) closer to 1. RSM significant parameters: alcohol content, total soluble solids (TSS), and pH had R2 values of 0.94, 0.93, and 0.99 respectively while the constructed ANN significant parameters: alcohol content, TSS, and viscosity had R2 values of 0.96, 0.96, and 0.92 respectively. The correlation between experimental and predicted values suggested that both RSM and ANN were suitable bioprocess development and optimization tools.

Abstract
Beer is the most consumed alcoholic beverage in the world and the third most popular beverage after water and tea. Emerging health-oriented lifestyle trends, demographics, stricter legislation, religious prohibitions, and consumers’ preferences have led to a strong and steady growth of interest for non-alcoholic beers (NABs), low-alcohol beers (LABs), as well for craft beers (CBs). Conventional beer, as the worlds most consumed alcoholic beverage, recently gained more recognition also due to its potential functionality associated with the high content of phenolic antioxidants and low ethanol content. The increasing attention of consumers to health-issues linked to alcohol abuse urges breweries to expand the assortment of conventional beers through novel drinks concepts. The production of these beers employs several techniques that vary in performance, efficiency, and usability. Involved production technologies have been reviewed and evaluated in this paper in terms of efficiency and production costs, given the possibility that craft brewers might want to adapt them and finally introduce novel non-alcoholic drinks in the market.

Abstract
Recipes for traditional and sour non-alcoholic beers were developed in this study employing a special yeast species Saccharomycodes ludwigii. They were characterized for their basic physicochemical properties, antioxidative activity as well as subjected to the quantitative and qualitative analysis of their biologically-active compounds, and to the sensory assessment. Sour non-alcoholic beers were brewed with the addition of juice from fruits of red-colored Cornelian cherry (Cornus mas L.) variety, which are characterized by naturally sour taste and aroma. Ethyl alcohol content in the beers manufactured ranged from 0.41%v/v in traditional non-alcoholic beers to 0.43%v/v in sour non-alcoholic beers. The final products had a low energy value, ranging from 116 to 148 kcal/500 mL of beer. The sour beers had several times higher antioxidative potential and significantly higher polyphenols concentration compared to the control ones. In addition, they were rich in anthocyanins and iridoids, and presented novel sensory attributes.

Abstract
Abstract
Through years beer became one of the best known alcoholic beverages in the world. For some reason e.g. healthy lifestyle, medical reasons, driver’s duties, etc. there is a need for soft drink with similar organoleptic properties as standard beer. There are two major approaches to obtain such product. First is to interfere with biological aspects of beer production technology like changes in mashing regime or to perform fermentation in conditions that promote lower alcohol production or using special (often genetic modified) microorganism. Second approach is to remove alcohol from standard beer. It is mainly possible due to evaporation techniques and membrane ones. All these approaches are presented in the paper.

Abstract
Alcohol-free beer (AFB) is no longer just a niche product in the beer market. For brewers, this product category offers economic benefits in the form of a growing market and often a lower tax burden and enables brewers to extend their product portfolio and promote responsible drinking. Non-Saccharomyces yeasts are known for their flavor-enhancing properties in food fermentations, and their prevailing inability to ferment maltose and maltotriose sets a natural fermentation limit and can introduce a promising approach in the production of AFB (≤0.5% v/v). Five strains isolated from kombucha, Hanseniaspora valbyensis, Hanseniaspora vineae, Torulaspora delbrueckii, Zygosaccharomyces bailii and Zygosaccharomyces kombuchaensis were compared to a commercially applied AFB strain Saccharomycodes ludwigii and a Saccharomyces cerevisiae brewer’s yeast. The strains were characterized for their sugar utilization, phenolic off-flavors, hop sensitivity and flocculation. Trial fermentations were analyzed for extract reduction, ethanol formation, pH drop and final beers were analyzed for amino acids utilization and fermentation by-products. The performance of non-Saccharomyces strains and the commercial AFB strain were comparable during fermentation and production of fermentation by-products. An experienced sensory panel could not discriminate between the non-Saccharomyces AFB and the one produced with the commercial AFB strain, therefore indicating their suitability in AFB brewing.
