Cheese is a generic term for a diverse group of milk based food products.
Cheese consists of proteins and fat from milk, usually the milk of cows, buffalo, goats, or sheep.
It is produced by coagulation of the milk protein casein.
Food Industry of Biotechnology involves preparation of different food items that are used as common part of diet throughout the world.The presentation describes the Industrial preparation of Yogurt.
INTRODUCTION:
BREAD is a dietary product obtained from the fermentation and the subsequent baking of a dough mainly made of cereal flour and water, made in many different ways and sometimes enriched with typical regional ingredients.
Ingredients of bread:
Flour is the bulking ingredient of bread, it forms the structure of the product,contains gluten which helps to form an elastic stretchy dough.
Yeast is a raising agent. Yeast produces gases to make the bread rise.
Salt is required to bring out flavour in the bread, it is used in small quantities.Too much of this ingredient will stop the yeast from growing.
Yeast needs energy to grow. Sugar provides the food for the yeast; it is needed to help the yeast grow.
Water is used to bind the flour together and helps to form the structure of the bread.
Fats or oils improve the texture of the bread, preventing it from going stale quickly.
Starter culture:
Baker's yeast is the common name for the strains of yeast commonly used as a leavening agent in baking bread and bakery products, where it converts the fermentable sugars present in the dough into carbon dioxide and ethanol. Baker's yeast is of the species Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which is the same species (but a different strain) commonly used in alcoholic fermentation which is called brewer's yeast.
Bread Making Process
Mixing has two functions: to evenly distribute the various ingredients and allow the development of a protein (gluten) network to give the best bread possible.
Once the bread is mixed it is then left to rise (ferment).
Any large gas holes that may have formed during rising are released by kneading.
Moulding the dough into desired loaf shape.
During the final rising the loaf fills with more bubbles of gas, and once this has proceeded far enough they are transferred to the oven for baking.
The loaf is then placed in a preheated oven to bake. Such a high heat will kill the yeast, thus stopping its process of rising and growth.
The whole loaf is cooled to about 35°C before slicing and wrapping can occur without damaging the loaf.
Types of Bread
1. White Bread
2. Brown Bread
3. Wholemeal bread
4. Rye bread
Apart from above there are several types like Crisp bread, Flatbread is often simple, made with flour, water, and salt.
Microbial spoilage
Molds are the primary spoilage organisms in baked goods, with Aspergillus, Penicillium, and Eurotium being the most commonly isolated genera.
Quality control
As a foodstuff, bread is subject to stringent government food processing regulations, including, but not limited to the percent of additives allowed, sterilization of plant equipment, and cleanliness of plant workers. In addition to adhering to these regulations, processors control the quality of their products to meet consumer expectations by installing checkpoints are various stages of the processing.

Beer is one of the oldest and most widely consumed alcoholic drinks in the world, and the third most popular drink overall after water and tea. Beer is brewed from cereal grains most commonly from malted barley, though wheat, maize (corn), and rice are also used. The process of beer production is known as brewing. Word brewing is derived from “Bieber” its means to drink.
Brewing is a complex fermentation process. It differs from other industrial fermentation because flavor, aroma, clarity, color, foam production, foam stability and percentage of alcohol are the factors associated with finished product.
During the brewing process, fermentation of the starch sugars in the wort produces ethanol and carbonation in the resulting beer. Most modern beer is brewed with hops, which add bitterness and other flavors and act as a natural preservative and stabilizing agent. Other flavoring agents such as gruit, herbs, or fruits may be included or used instead of hops.
The topic is about beer production. How beer is produced that is highlited here.some good pictures are also presented here.How much ammount of the alcoholos are present that is also mentioned here.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

3. What is beer?
Name comes from bibere; a
latin word, meaning “to
drink”
Is an alcoholic fermented
drink
Consists of malted grains
(wheat, barley...)
Uses yeast as microorganisms
in fermentation process
Different carbohydrate
sources create different beer
styles and flavors.
Figure 1: Different grains used give
different beer styles.

4. History of beer
4000BC – In the middle east, the Sumer people were fermenting a form of bread to
make a fermented pulp which had an intoxicating effect.
3000BC –The early beer was cloudy and unfiltered and was usually drunk through a
straw to avoid drinking the solids from the brew, which could be very bitter.
1550BC – The Egyptians were also keen brewers. Beer and malt have been found
buried in the tombs of the Pharaohs to provide sustenance for the afterlife.
100AD – Beer was extensively drunk throughout the Roman Empire. Beer from this time
had to be consumed fresh and it was served cloudy. In addition, the beer would have
produced little or no foam at all. To aid its taste and keeping properties, bitter herbs
and spices may have been used.
Figure 2: Babylonians
drinking beer with straws.
Figure 3: Hieroglyphics
showing presence of
beer in Egypt.4
5. History of beer
The Middle Ages – The largest brewers were the monasteries.
From 1000AD – Most beer was bittered with wild herbs.
From 1150AD – The addition of hops slowly spread throughout Europe reaching Britain by the
middle of the 15th century.
The Reinheitsgebot (German Purity Law) of 1516 – The law stipulated that beer could only
be brewed from water, hops and malt and that the use of yeast would come later, after it had
been identified as the organism responsible for fermentation.
The Free Mash Tun Act of 1880 - The new law enabled "the brewer to brew from what he
pleases and have a perfect choice of his materials and methods".
In 1882-1895 - Louis Pasteur, a French scientist, discovered that there were different types of
yeasts that could be used in different types of fermentation hence producing distinct beer
flavours.
Today - beer occupies the 1st ranking order in terms of the mostly consumed alcoholic drink
around the world.

7. Water
● Makes up 90% of volume of beer.
● Is obtained from well or spring or tap water might also be
used.
● Its purity is maintained to obtain good beer.
● Its salts and minerals contents is monitored and adjusted.
I. If water contains too much of sulphur, the brew becomes
bitter.
II. Magnesium on the other hand is an important molecule for
yeasts.
7
8. Malt
Figure 7: Malt extract used can be
in the dried or liquid form.
● Sugar coming from malted grains such as barley, wheat,
oats, maize and rice.
● Soaking of grains in water allow germination and
enzymes’ activation.
● Conversion of starch and proteins into sugars and amino
acids.(malting)
● Heat drying of grains to deactivate enzymes.
● Crushing and soaking of malted grains in hot water to
reactivate enzymes.
● Enzymes produce maltose sugar which is boiled with hops
and yeasts to produce beer.
8
9. Hops
Figure 8.1: Hops.
Figure 8.2: Waxy yellow lupulin gland
within leaves of the flower.
● Are cone-like flowers obtained from the Hop vine plant.
● Grows in regions like North America, Europe and Asia.
● Humulones found in lupulin:
I. Gives the beer its bitterness.
II. Increases the beer’s shelf life.
● Hops contains resins and oils.
I. The resins gives bitterness to the beer.
II. The oils enhances the flavour and aroma of the beer.
9
10. Yeasts
Are unicellular microorganisms.
Convert sugars into alcohol and carbon dioxide.
Are added after water and malt altogether is
boiled and cooled.
Two types of yeasts are usually used:
I. Ale yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae)
II. Lager yeast (Saccharomyces uvarum)

13. 1. Malting
The grains are soaked in water tanks for 2-3 days at 10-15°C (steeping)
They are allowed to germinate for 6-15 days(humidity: 45%, temperature:
12-21°C).
Enzyme cystase converts insoluble starch to soluble one.
Enzyme diastase converts the soluble starch into sugars.
Conversion of starch into sugars (maltose) is known as malting.
Figure 14: The malting process in barley.
13
14. The malt is then hot air dried at about 55⁰C in oast houses (oasting).
Figure 15.1: The structure of an oast
house.
Figure 15.2: The cross section of the oast
house.
14
15. 2. Milling
After drying and heating, the rootlets from the malt is removed.
These malt culms are then sold to provide feed for cattle.
The grains are then grinded coarsely in roller mills; forming grists.
Figure 16.1: The roller
mill.
Figure 16.2: Different varieties of
grinded malted grains.15
16. 3. Mashing
The grist is mixed with hot water
The mash is cooked for up to 6
hours at low temperature.
Enzymes in the malt convert
starch into sugars producing wort.
The wort is then boiled for about
an hour and a half.
Factors like: temperature, time
and pH are adjusted. Figure 17: The mash tun.
16
17. 4. Lautering
Refers to the separation of wort(sugar
solution) from the undissolved part of the
grain.
Water is sparged through the grains.
Sparging must be done very gradually.
This process is done in tanks known as
lauter tun which contains a giant sieve.
The spent grains are sold as feed for cattle.
The malt mixture might also be sprayed
with hot water.
Figure 18: The lauter tun.17
18. 5. Boiling
The wort is then transferred into boiling tanks
(kettle)
Hops are added at this stage.
Boiling :sterilizes the wort, inactivates enzymes,
coagulates proteins present and forms flavour
compounds from added hops.
Hops and precipitated proteins are separated from
wort after boiling is done.
Resulting liquid is cooled in a plate heat exchanger
to the fermenting temperature.
Figure 19: The copper kettle.
18
19. 6. Hop Separation and Cooling
Proteins and hops are then removed from the wort.
The wort is oxygenated during cooling.
The wort then goes to the hot wort tank.
It is then cooled in a plate cooler where the
coolant flow in opposite direction to the wort.
The wort’s temperature drops from boiling to
about 10-20°C in a few seconds.
Figure 20: The plate cooler.
19
20. 7. Fermentation
The cooled oxygenated wort is placed into
fermenting vessels and yeasts are added.
Vessels used: square open or conical(mostly used).
Fermentation last for about 7 to 10 days or more.
The function of the fermenter is:
To contain a maximum amount of wort.
To allow evacuation or collection of carbon dioxide.
To have a proper cooling system.
To monitor pH and pressure inside vessel.
20
21. Fermenter tanks
The open square vessel:
Older types of vessels originally made of slabs.
Modern one-stainless steel.
Supports top fermentation.
Internal cooling pipes present.
Liquid pumped from bottom to top- mixing of
wort with yeast and for aeration purposes.
Accumulated liquid flow through organ pipes
to bottom.
Yeasts easily removed from tray at the end.
Figure 21: The open square fermenter.
21
22. Fermenter tanks (cont.)
Cylindro-conical vessels:
Large stainless vessels- industrial use.
Yeasts and wort pumped through bottom of
vessel-reduce admission of O₂.
Mostly supports bottom fermentation.
Vessels equipped with cooling jackets and
pressure relief valves.
CIP fluids introduced through vessel by a CIP
arm.
Yeast is collected at bottom in the cone which
can be cleaned easily.
CIP spray

Figure 22: The cylindro-conical vessel.
22
23. Fermentation
Fermenting temperature depends on yeasts being used.
Antifoam agents used when foam production is high.
At the end of the fermentation, the yeast is removed and saved for reuse in the
next batch.
Four main factors affecting the rate and quality of beer fermentation:
1. Fermentation temperature.
2. Volume of yeast used at the start of fermentation.
3. Volume of oxygen in the wort at the start and during fermentation.
4. Level of nutrients in wort. 23
24. Four Stages of Beer Fermentation
1. Lag Stage
This stage take a half to 2 days depending on:
Yeast pitching rate - refers to the amount of
yeast that is added to cooled wort.
Yeast viability - refers to the percentage of
viable cell in a population.
Yeast vitality - refers to the activity or
metabolism of the cell.
Wort temperature
Wort aeration rate before the fermentation
start.
The yeast adaptation time.
Graph 1: Stages in beer fermentation.
24
25. Four Stages of Beer Fermentation (cont.)
2. Log (Accelerating) Stage
Yeast cells and beer temperature increases up to the maximum.
Beer is cooled to keep temperature constant all the time.
Foam is seen on surface of beer.
3. Stationary stage
Beer gravity will drop.
Foam becomes dark.
4. Declining Stage
Beer fermentation rate and fermentable sugar in the beer decreases.
Beer temperature is cooled down.
25
26. Summary of the processes that occur during
fermentation.
I. Yeasts use up O₂ producing sterol promoting its growth.
II. The pH is reduced and ethanol and CO₂ are formed.
III. When most of the wort sugars are used up, fermentation
rate decreases.
IV. An increase in alcohol level causes flocculation and
settling of yeasts.
V. Beer is removed and subjected to further treatment.
26
27. Types of Beer fermentation
1. Top
fermentation
2. Bottom
fermentation
Use ale or ‘top-
fermenting’ yeast
Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Warmer temp: 65 – 75oF
Yeast and foam found at
the top of the medium is
removed
Second crop that is
produced by the end of
fermentation is
harvested since the yeast
is pure.
Types of beer produced:
Ale, porter, stout…
Use lager or ‘bottom-
fermenting’ yeast
Saccharomyces uvarum
Cooler temp: 45 – 55oF
Settled yeast is
decanted from the
unconditioned beer.
It is manually collected
from middle layer of
the sediment due to its
purity.
Types of beer produced:
Lager, pilsner…
27
28. Other beer fermentations types
3. Spontaneous fermentation
Uses wild yeasts from air : Brettanomyces bruxellensis and Brettanomyces lambicus.
Lactic acid and acetic acid fermentation gives the beer a sour taste.
Beers produced: lambic, geuze, kriek and faro.
4. Mixed fermentation
Yeasts similar to top fermentation is used.
Bacteria are also used.
Combination of spontaneous and top fermentation.
Conversion of organic acids and higher alcohols to esters.
Aging of some beers to develop fruity flavour.
28
29. Fermentation systems used in beer production
1. Batch fermentation system
Bioreactor is loaded with fresh medium and the selected yeast strain.
During growth period, no medium is added or removed.
Entire medium is removed from the vessel at the end of fermentation.
Vessel is cleaned and the new batch is started.
2. Fed batch fermentation system
Wort is continuously added in the vessel as soon as they are being
used up.
Beer is removed when production reaches maximum.
29
30. Fermentation systems used in beer production
3. Continuous fermentation system
Used in large scale production of beer.
Wort is continuously supplied and the product is being removed at the
same time.
Disadvantages:
Microbial contamination is more
recurrent.
Costly vessels are used.
May not be suitable for all beer
qualities.
Advantages:
• Rapid conversion of wort to beer.
• Higher efficiency; high ethanol yield is
observed.
• It is more economical.
30
31. 8. Lagering
Lagering- storing and conditioning stage of beer.
Beer is kept at about 0°C in stainless steel tanks after
fermentation has occurred.
Beer is stabilised and matured to produce desired
flavour.
It is either pasteurised or filtered once or twice before
bottling.
This process takes 1-3 weeks or months depending on
the type of beer being produced.
Figure 23: The lager tank.
31
32. 9. Bottling and preservation
Packaging done in: bottles, cans and barrels.
The container is kept free of oxygen.
The beer is then pasteurized.
This kill the remaining yeasts.
Beer can also be preserved using special micro-
filters.
When bottling, the beer is also subjected to
carbonization process. Figure 24: The bottling process.
32
33. Types of beer
Generally, beers are classified according to the type of yeasts used in the
fermentation process.
Beer
Ale
Pale ale Mild ale Stout
Lager
Light

Styles: pale lager, dark lager, bock beer,
amber lager, speciality lager, malt liquor,
steam beer
Differences between ale and lager beers
34
35. Factors Affecting Beer Quality
Activity of yeast cell during fermentation influence character of beer.
Factors affecting quality of beer produced:
Non-fermentable components - have an impact on the medium.
Fermentable sugar - converted also to some.
Inner yeast cell released components - released from the yeast cell when
it is inactive.
Surface active components - adsorbed into the yeast cell wall.
Contamination – has huge impact on fermentation.
