The traditional batch brewing process is characterised by serial yeast propagation to build sufficient yeast for pitching. This results in cyclic variations in yeast environment, leading to a slow brewing process. In high gravity brewing the carbohydrate utilisation is inefficient as a result of the Crabtree effect that occurs in the presence of high sugar concentration. When optimising the brewing process the characteristics of conventional batch brewing should be maintained. Fed-batch propagation of yeast is used to improve carbohydrate utilisation and the yeast biomass formation by controlling nutrient supply. 2014-11-20T19:43:49Z 2014-11-20T19:43:49Z 2001 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/9751 eng application/pdf Centre for Bioprocess Engineering Research Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment University of Cape Town |
