Booze, Booch, Bread, and Brine: The Science of Fermentation


Details
Science on Tap goes ONLINE!
Join us for an online event on Thursday, June 4, at 7:00pm PST.
EVENT DESCRIPTION: With social media feeds full of homemade bread, homebrew, and pickling, people seem to be embracing fermentation like never before. In this tasty Science on Tap Online event hear from geneticist Dr. Kevin McCabe https://www.doublestrandconsulting.com , former Quality Manager for Full Sail Brewing and co-creator of KYLA Hard Kombucha as he explains the science behind some of our favorite foods and beverages. Kevin will introduce the biochemistry of fermentation, the microbes involved, and the similarities and differences of how cider, wine, beer, distilled spirits, bread, kombucha, and pickles all rely on fermentation.
Want a taste of one of Kevin’s earlier Science on Tap talks?
