Analysis of the secondary compounds produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae and wild yeast strains during the production of "cachaça"

Abstract: The aim of this study is to compare the composition of "cachaças" produced in 10 fermentation cycles by Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Sc) and wild yeast strains [Pichia silvicola (Ps), Pichia anomala 1 (Pa1), Pichia anomala 2 (Pa2) and Dekkera bruxelensis (Db)], isolated from distilleries in Jaboticabal -SP, Brazil. The secondary components of the heart fraction were determined by gas chromatography. The levels of secondary components were influenced by the wine pH, which varied among yeast strains. S. cerevisiae … Show more

“…These compounds have an inhibitory effect on acetic acid fermentation. Furthermore, methanol is toxic when present at levels above this level in fermented drinks (Dato et al, 2005). Glycerol was at a relatively low concentration (0.65 g/100 mL), which is a negative aspect, since this compound gives the wine a soft and sweet taste when in the range of 7-9 g/L (Clarke & Bakker, 2008).…”

“…Non-Saccharomyces yeasts studied by OLIVEIRA et al (2005) in small-scale sugar cane fermentations did not exert a negative influence on the sensory quality of the cachaça. Wild yeasts (Pichia silvicola, Pichia anomala and Dekkera bruxellensis) were also adequate for high-quality cachaça production, because these microorganisms produce acceptable concentrations of secondary compounds (DATO et al, 2005).…”

“…However, the yeast is commercially used for production of the alcoholic beverage lambic beer (24) and belongs to the natural microflora of sourdough (14). It has even been shown in a model fermentation that the yeast can produce ethanol and by-products (aldehydes and others) in accordance with the rules of the Brazilian legislation for cachaca, a national distilled beverage (6). D. bruxellensis obviously did not impair the production process, and we conclude that it is not a contaminant in this fermentation but instead the production organism.…”
