Question

Which raw material is used in the fermentation process of making beer?
A. Starch in vegetables
B. Starch in cereals
C. Sugar in fruits
D. Protein in pulses

Answer 1

Hint: A toxic drink produced by chemically breaking fruit or grain sugar and heat releases in the process. Fermentation is the process of breaking down sugar substances by chemical means involving microorganisms and releasing heat. The end product of the fermentation is alcohol and carbon dioxide.

Complete answer: In fermentation the chemical will change into organic substances by certain enzymes. In this process, in the absence of oxygen energy is obtained from various carbohydrates. It is used in the production of various types of beverages and food. The process also occurs inside the gastrointestinal tracts of humans and many animals. Beer requires these ingredients for brewing properly prepared cereal grains usually Barley and corn or rice, hops, pure water, and brewer’s yeast. Each ingredient can affect flavor, color, carbonation alcohol content, and other subtle changes in the beer. Grains are carefully stored and handled to promote the highest quality. Hops are a form of cultivated perennial hemp, and the useful portions of the vine, the sticky cones, are developed from the bloom. Large quantities of pure water are extremely important not only as an ingredient but for maintaining the cleanliness of Brewing equipment. In beer, water high in lime or iron can interfere with a fermentation process and discolor the final product. Yeasts are fungi, which are microorganisms that reduce sugars to alcohol by fermentation.
Thus, the answer is option B: starch in cereals

Note: Fermentation is of significant importance for long. The people worshiped by Baltic god Rugutis as the agent of fermentation. Louis Pasteur Schwann’s experiments during the 1850s and 1860s to show that fermentation occurs in living organisms, which he later named lactic acid fermentation. In 1897 Edward Buechner used yeast to form end products of fermentation. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for this.
