The theory of the beer fermentation process experienced  a long development, in the 19th century, from the mechanical  interpretation through the explanation on the basis of simply  chemical reactions down to the understanding of the  biological anaerobic process of fermentation with  participation of brewery yeast and to the importance of  enzyme reactions. Then, the measures were followed by  isolation and introduction of pure yeast cultures in the  production process in breweries and by findings regarding  infectious microorganisms in the brewing process.  In the nineteen fifties, the cognition of...
