Coffee pulp, mucilage, and beans with mucilage were used to develop alcoholic beverages. The pulp of 45.3% pulp, 54.7% mucilage with seed, and 9.4% mucilage only were obtained during the wet processing of coffee. Musts were prepared for all to TSS (Total soluble solid) 18 °Bx and fermentation was carried out for 12–16 days until TSS decreased to 5 °Bx at 30 °C. Phenolic characteristics, chromatic structures, chemical parameters, and sensory characteristics were analyzed for the prepared alcoholic beverages. Methanol content, ester content, aldehyde, alcohol, total acidity, caffeine, polyphenols, flavonoids, chromatic structure, and hue of the alcoholic beverage from the pulp was 335 mg/L, 70.58 ppm, 9.15 ppm, 8.86 ABV%, 0.41%, 30.94 ppm, 845.7 mg GAE/g dry extract, 440.7 mg QE/g dry extract, 0.41, and 1.71, respectively. An alcoholic beverage from the pulp was found superior to an alcoholic beverage from mucilage with beans and a beverage from mucilage in sensory analysis. There is the possibility of developing fermented alcoholic beverages from coffee pulp and mucilage. However, further research is necessary for quality of the beans that were obtained from the fermentation with the mucilage.

Two trials in different agricultural farms were carried out from October 2014 to June 2015 with the aim to assess the advantages linked to the substitution of the low density polyethylene (LDPE) films for soil mulching with the Mater-Bi<sup>®</sup> biodegradable films in the strawberry cultivation under tunnel in Campania. Lifetime of biodegradable mulch and influence of type of mulch on the yield and the quality of cvs Sabrina and Fortuna were evaluated. Plants were cultivated on mulched, raised beds, high 40 cm from bottom soil. Mater-Bi<sup>®</sup> film was 20 <span>µ</span>m thick while LDPE film was 50 mm thick. The physical-chemical parameters (firmness, pH, total soluble solid content, titratable acidity and skin colour) and some bioactive compounds (total polyphenols, flavonoids, anthocyanins, antioxidant activity) of fruits were determined by three samplings effected in consecutive months (from March to May 2015) of the harvest cycle. Biodegradable film guaranteed an effective mulch along the whole strawberry cycle (9-10 months including the time of drawing up of film). Yields of cv Sabrina on LDPE was 18% higher than those on Mater-Bi<sup>®</sup> while the opposite was detected in cv Fortuna (+10%). The physical-chemical parameters of fruits were not modified by the mulches. The content of the bioactive compounds, instead, resulted, in each time of sampling, significantly higher in fruits picked on Mater-Bi<sup>®</sup> based film.

Beverages containing alcohol are fermented from the sugars in fruits, berries, grains, and such other ingredients as plant saps, tubers, honey, and milk and may be distilled to reduce the original watery liquid to a liquid of much greater alcoholic strength. Fermented honey drinks may have been the earliest alcoholic beverages known to man. The aim of this work was to contribute to filling the gap of low brewing technology knowledge and scientific knowledge for an innovative application of honey in the beer and liquors industry. In this study honey beverages were formulated using different amount of honey with spices, yeast, hop, fruit, alcohol with different alcohol contents, herbs like cinnamon, clove, ginger, vanilla, fruits and maize and finger millet grain ingredients. Quality assessment of the products were assessed concerning physicochemical analysis, microbiological analysis, sensory evaluation of the formulations, estimation of shelf-life and cost and yield of the products to characterize the honey beverages three different liquors and nine beer beverages produced from honey and other different ingredients. The pH, total acidity, total soluble solid and ethyl acohol contents of the formulated honey beverages were range from 3.8±0.03 to 6.1±0.010, 1.63±0.06 to 21.0±1.63, 21.30±0.56 to 36.87±0.50 and 4.81±0.17 % to 44.10±0.50 %, respectively. Liquors and beers can be formulated from honey and other ingredients to involve unemployed young as entrepreneurs to increase their income.

Traditional alcoholic beverage, traditionally produced with hereditay recipe which is drunk to celebrate religious or tradition event. Government have not regulated a distinctive act to control production, so it needs to be analyzed the writer compose a thesis with systematical interpretation and extention to Regional Governance Act Number 23/2014, Ministry of Industry Regulation number 63/M-IND/PER/7/2014 in Restraining and Controlling The Industry and Quality of Beverage, Ministry of Trade Ragulation No. 20/M-Dag/Per/4/2014 in Restraining and Controlling of Supply, Distribution and Sale of Alcoholic Beverage, Head of Drug and Food Board Regulation Number HK.03.1.23.04.12.2205 in Guidelines On The Provision of Certificates of Food Production of Household Industries. Furthermore, writer also examine about Regional Government’s liability in controlling the production of traditional alcoholic beverage. Based on systematical interpretation and extention to regulation above, Regional/Local government has authorization in issuing a permit of traditional alcoholic beverage. However, there is no regulation that organizes the authority of local government to give license to the production of it. In contrast, local government has authority to control the distribution of traditional alcoholic beverage with implements the regulation inforcement to business activities that violate the license to trade by selling traditional alcoholic beverages.

Tsipouro is a traditional Greek alcoholic beverage, produced by distillation of fermented grape pomace. Some of the by-products of the alcoholic fermentation such as acetaldehyde, ethylacetate and amyl alcohols are mainly responsible for the aroma of alcoholic beverages and their amounts specify the quality of the distillate. Several tsipouro samples were stored for 12 months in three types of containers (PET, PVC and glass bottles) to determine the effect of thepackaging material on changes in aroma of the distillate. Determination of volatile compounds was performed by gas chromatography and identification by mass spectrometry. The results revealed that the major volatile constituents of tsipouro were not significantly affected by the container material. Changes in concentrations could be attributed to the natural evolution of the distillate. However, migration of plasticisers from plastic containers into the distillate has been detected, an issue that requires further investigation.

During 1995 and 1996, yield and quality of `Banaty' grapes in response to spraying chelated iron and zinc singly or in combination each at 0.025%, 0.05%, 0.1%, 0.2%, or 0.3% was investigated. Each concentration was applied once, twice, three, four, or five times. Results showed that there was a gradual increase in berry set, cluster number, yield, cluster weight, berry weight, total soluble solid sugars, and total anthocyanins with rising concentrations and number of sprays of each fertilizer. Total acidity tended to reduce with such treatment. Combined spray of both fertilizers, particularly at 0.1% four times, gave satisfactory improvement in both quantity and quality of grapes. Spraying at concentrations higher than 0.1% or spraying more than four times failed to show any measurable effect on all of the studied traits. The best results with regard to yield and quality of `Banaty' grapes were obtained on vines that received four sprays of iron and zinc each at 0.1% in chelated form.

The natural biopolymer chitin and its deacetylated derivative chitosan are abundant in nature. They are obtained from different sources, including the crustacean shells and the cell wall of fungi. Chitin and chitosan have various applications in the beverage industry, such as a flocculent to improve the clarification process, for the reduction of metals and contaminates, and to extend shelf-life. They are also used as material for the immobilization of microorganisms and enzymes, which allows the development of bioprocesses that preserve the quality of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. Therefore, the main purpose of this overview is to consolidate some of the current practical applications of chitin and chitosan in the alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverage industry and to reveal new perspectives.

The spontaneous fermentation of alcoholic beverage is a bioprocess donated by microbiota with complex stress environments. Among various microbes, non-Saccharomyces yeasts have high stress tolerance and significantly affect the taste and quality of products in process. Although many researchers have focused on the influence of acid stress, the mechanism of non-Saccharomyces yeasts to tolerant stress remains unclear in microbiota. To bridge the gap, we constructed in situ and in vitro studies to explore the reduction pathway of acetic acid in non-Saccharomyces yeasts. In this study, we found Schizosaccharomyces pombe has special capacities to resist 10 g/L acetic acid in laboratory cultures and decrease the average concentration of acetic acid from 9.62 to 6.55 g/kg fermented grains in Chinese Maotai-flavor liquor (Baijiu) production. Moreover, Schi. pombe promoted metabolic level of mevalonate pathway (high expressions of gene ACCAT1, HMGCS1, and HMGCR1) to degrade a high concentration of acetic acid. Meanwhile, Schi. pombe also improved the concentration of mevalonic acid that is the precursor of terpenes to enhance the taste and quality of Baijiu. Overall, the synchronicity of reduction and generation in Schi. pombe advances the current knowledge to guide more suitable strategies for mechanism studies of non-Saccharomyces yeasts in fermented industries of alcoholic beverages.

The effect of single or combined application of urea-formaldehyde at 80 g N/vine, sulfur at 0.4%, and three compounds of iron (chelated, sequestered, and sulfate forms as 0.1%) on productivity of `Red Roomy' grapevines was studied during 1995 and 1996. A substantial increase in berry set, number of clusters, yield weight of clusters and berries, total soluble solid sugars, and anthocyanins was observed because of the application of these fertilizers singly or in combination. Total acidity in the juice was reduced because of application of these fertilizers. Combined application of urea-formaldehyde, sulfur, and chelated iron gave the best results with regard to yield and quality of berries. An economical yield was obtained on `Red Roomy' vines supplied with urea-formaldehyde at 80 g/vine, sulfur at 0.4%, and chelated iron at 0.1%.
