Nowadays, consumers require quality beer with peculiar organoleptic characteristics and fermentation management has a fundamental role in the production of aromatic compounds and in the overall beer quality. A strategy to achieve this goal is the use of non-conventional yeasts. In this context, the use of Torulaspora delbrueckii was proposed in the brewing process as a suitable strain to obtain a product with a distinctive aromatic taste. In the present work, Saccharomyces cerevisiae/T. delbrueckii mixed fermentation was investigated at a microbrewery plant monitoring the evolution of the main aromatic compounds. The results indicated a suitable behavior of this non-conventional yeast in a production plant. Indeed, the duration of the process was very closed to that exhibited by S. cerevisiae pure fermentation. Moreover, mixed fermentation showed an increase of some aromatic compounds as ethyl hexanoate, α-terpineol, and β-phenyl ethanol. The enhancement of aromatic compounds was confirmed by the sensory evaluation carried out by trained testers. Indeed, the beers produced by mixed fermentation showed an emphasized note of fruity/citric and fruity/esters notes and did not show aroma defects.

Wickerhamomyces anomalus and Saccharomyces cerevisiae were mixed by co-inoculation or sequential inocula-tion, and the physicochemical properties, electronic sensory characteristics, and aromatic characteristics of longan (Dimocarpus longan Lour.) wine were evaluated to analyze the effects of mixed fermentation on wine quality. The results demonstrate that mixed fermentation obtained by co-inoculation or sequential inoculation decreases the alcohol content of longan wine. Furthermore, mixed fermentation also leads to the reduction of the electronic sensory acidity and richness of longan wine. Moreover, the two mixed inoculation methods resulted in different effects on the aromatic characteristics of longan wine. The varieties of aldehyde and ketone aromatic compounds increase in longan wine fermented by co-inoculation, with increasing amounts of acids, aldehydes, ketones, and other compounds, and a decrease in the amounts of ester compounds. However, the variety of ester aromatic compounds and the amounts of acids, aldehydes, and ketones increase when using sequential inoculation. Therefore, the application of mixed fermentation can regulate the physicochemical properties, as well as the electronic sensory characteristics and aromatic characteristics of longan wine, and this contributes to the enrichment of the different types of longan wine.

Bacanora is a Mexican distilled beverage made from agave, similar to tequila and mescal, produced with an artisanal process. Therefore the organoleptic characteristics of different bacanora vary highly. The aim of this study was to characterize and select native yeast involved in this artisanal process of fermentation. An initial pre-selection based upon the phenotypic characteristics of 580 strains of yeast was done, and then with fermentation characteristics with agave juice, to select some strains which satisfy with desirable. The Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeasts produced at the end of the fermentation 8.27 ± 0.24 g/L of biomass, 25.51 ± 1.19 g/L of ethanol, with a volumetric productivity of ethanol of 1.76±0.17 g/L/h. While for the three strains non-Saccharomyces the parameters were 3.86 ± 1.14 g/L, 15.56± 1.68 g/L and 0.484±0.06 g/L/h respectively. In the mixed culture of three S. cerevisiae, all remained at the end, but one of them predominates and of non-Saccharomyces yeasts, Torulaspora delbrueckii was the predominant yeast, this according with PFGE results. The results showed that the native yeasts are adapted to the agave juice used for production of bacanora and these yeasts would contribute to improve the ethanol yields and the organoleptic characteristics of Bacanora.

The application of yeast strains that are low producers of sulfur compounds is actually required by winemakers for the production of organic wine. This purpose could be satisfied using a native Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain improved for oenological aptitudes. Moreover, to improve the aromatic complexity of wines, sequential fermentations carried out with S. cerevisiae/non-Saccharomyces yeast is widely used. For these reasons, in the present work an improved native S. cerevisiae low producer of sulfite and sulfide compounds was evaluated in pure and in sequential fermentation with a selected Torulaspora delbrueckii. Additionally, the influence of grape juices coming from three different vintages under winery conditions was evaluated. In pure fermentation, improved native S. cerevisiae strain exhibited a behavior related to vintage, highlighting that the composition of grape juice affects the fermentation process. In particular, an increase in ethyl octanoate (vintage 2017) and phenyl ethyl acetate (vintage 2018) was detected. Moreover, isoamyl acetate was highly consistent and could be a distinctive aroma of the strain. The sequential fermentation T. delbrueckii/S. cerevisiae determined an increase in aroma compounds such as phenyl ethyl acetate and ethyl hexanoate. In this way, it was possible to produce Verdicchio wine with reduced sulfites and characterized by a peculiar aromatic taste.

Chitosan-genipin films have been proposed for preservation of white wine, maintaining their varietal key odorants and organoleptic characteristics of sulfur dioxide treated wines. Nevertheless, these wines showed aroma notes that slightly distinguish them. It is possible that during the contact of films with wine for at least 2 months, after fermentation and prior to bottling, interactions or chemical reactions are promoted. In this work, wine model solutions with volatile compounds in contact with chitosan-genipin films were performed to evaluate their evolution along time. To complement these analyses, the volatile compounds of white and red wines kept in contact with chitosan-genipin films during 2 and 8 months were also studied. The results obtained allowed us to conclude that the contact of chitosan-genipin films with both white and red wines tend to retain long carbon chain volatile compounds, such as ethyl hexanoate and octan-3-one. It also promoted the formation of Maillard reaction products, such as furfural by dehydration of pentoses and Strecker aldehydes, such as 3-methylbutanal and phenylacetaldehyde, by degradation of amino acids. This study reveals that the use of chitosan-genipin films for wine preservation is also able to promote the formation of compounds that can modulate the wines aroma, maintaining the varietal notes.

Ethyl acetate content has strong influence on the style and quality of Baijiu. Therefore, this study investigated the effect of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Y3401 on the production of ethyl acetate by Wickerhamomyces anomalus Y3604. Analysis of cell growth showed that Y3401 influences Y3604 by nutrient competition and inhibition by metabolites, while the effect of Y3604 on Y3401 was mainly competition for nutrients. Mixed fermentation with two yeasts was found to produce more ethyl acetate than a single fermentation. The highest yield of ethyl acetate was 2.99 g/L when the inoculation ratio of Y3401:Y3604 was 1:2. Synergistic fermentation of both yeasts improved ethyl acetate production and increased the content of other flavor compounds in liquid and simulated solid-state fermentation for Baijiu. Saccharomyces cerevisiae had a positive effect on ethyl acetate production in mixed culture and provides opportunities to alter the aroma and flavor perception of Baijiu.
