occurs when grape juice is allowed to stand and
through a series of biochemical changes, alcohol and other
substances are produced from grape sugar.
Fermentation
39
Wine making (Pasteur concluded that proper selection of microbes
could ensure a consistently good product)
How?
1. Heating the grape juice
2. Cool and inoculate it with some high-quality wine
( Starter culture = contained the desired kind of microbe)

(pasteurization)
-applied today in the canning and preservation
of many foods
