 Introduction
• Process: is a method of
doing/making sthing, specially in
industry.
• It is a treatment of raw materials
to change, preserve…which
requires a series of operations.
• Industry: refers to production of
good from raw materials.(ex. In
factories)
• Fermentation: experiencing a
chemical change because of the
action of yeast or bacteria, often
changing sugar to alcohol. The
science of fermentation is known
as zymology.
• Technology: a scientific
knowledge used in practical ways
in industry.
Ex. beer production

 Beverage
• Beverages are portable
drinks, which have thirst-
quenching, refreshing,
stimulating and nourishing
qualities. By refreshing one
means the replenishment
of fluid loss from the body
due to perspiration.
• Stimulation results in increase of the
heartbeat and blood pressure. This
is due to the intake of spirits or tea
and coffee. Nourishment is provided
by the nutrients in the beverages.
• Most of the beverage supply energy
is in the form of sugar or alcohol.
They also provide other nutrients like
mineral salts and vitamins. Ex. Milk-
calcium, fruit juice-vitamin C

 Production of alcoholic
beverages
• Fermentation process: Fermentation is the process in
which sugar is converted to alcohol and carbon dioxide by
yeast. This process is the basis for producing all types of
alcoholic beverages. Examples of fermentation drinks are
wine, beer and cider.
• Distillation process: Distillation is a process of
simultaneous evaporation and condensation of liquid or
mixture of liquids to purify them.

alcoholic beverages made from partially
germinated cereal grains, referred to as often derived from malted
malt. They include ales, lagers and stouts, cereal grains; most commonly
which normally contain 3–8% (v/v) ethanol.

 cont.
• The preparation of beer is called
brewing. Most beer is flavored with
hops, which add bitterness and act
as a natural preservative, though
other flavorings such as herbs or
fruit may occasionally be included.
• Beer is a portable alcoholic beverage
fermented from malted barley and
flavored with hops. The alcoholic
content is between 3% to 5% and is
known to be a very refreshing drink.
• Contents Of Beer
1. Water : 89-91% by weight.
2. Alcohol : 3-5% by weight (in
exceptional cases, up to 10-12%).
3. Carbohydrates, sugar or dextrin :
3-4% by weight.
4. Protein : 0.4-0.5% by weight.
5. Carbon dioxide gas : 0.4-0.5% by
weight.
6. Minerals, salts : 0.2% by weight.
