Abstract:
Based on the optimization of mead production,the variation of the essential substances in the process of mead fermentation was investigated.In addition,the fermentation kinetics of mead was studied by determining the change in the concentration of yeast,alcohol and total sugar content in this paper.Based on Logistic equation and Luedeking equation,the kinetics models of cell growth,alcohol production and substrate consumption were set up.The fit values of the three models were 0.994,0.984,and 0.996,respectively.The model was found to be capable of reflecting all batch culture phases to a certain degree of accuracy.
