Record 2 1998-01-26

English

Subject field(s)
  • Brewing and Malting
CONT

Flavor changes during maturation are not predominantly yeast-related unless there is a sediment present. Over a period of time, the yeast cells will begin a process of deterioration called autolysis. The by-products of autolysis can contribute a yeasty flavor to the beer.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Brasserie et malterie
CONT

[...] si la bière a un goût de levure prononcé et qu'elle est trouble en raison de la présence de levure en suspension, c'est probablement que la fermentation du sucre ajouté à l'embouteillage n'est pas encore terminée.
