Kvasny Prum. 1969; 15(7): 160-162 | DOI: 10.18832/kp1969015  

The yeast and microorganisms of yeast type which can be detected in wineries fall into two different groups. To the first belongs a comparatively small number of sporulating and asporogenous sorts which enter the wineries with incoming raw materials and which under normal conditions live in natural environment outside the plants. To the second group belong microorganisms living as a rule only inside wineries. They take no part in biological processes in wine.(In Slovak, English summary only)

The continuous method of making sparkling wine is a new technology which has recently been introduced in Czechoslovakia. Since the method has been used with satisfactory results in Bulgaria and Soviet Union, it can be reasonably expected that also in Czechoslovakia it will be duly appreciated for its advantages. The quality of wine from wineries applying continuous method is in every respect outstanding and comparable with the best sorts made by wineries adhering to conventional technology.(In Slovak, English summary only)
