Prelude


Twelve students, one fermentor and one hell load of cells….

Ever drank Yakult or eaten Yoghurt before? Ever wondered how they are made? If you have those questions in mind, then you have come to the wrong place because we are not going to tell you how Yakult or Yoghurt is made.

But wait! Don’t click that little box with an X yet…

Why? Because we are going to share with you something more interesting then how Yakult was made. We are going to share you a not-so-secretive trade secret; a process that has been handed down by our long lost forgotten forefathers; the process that has churned up so many wonderful products like yakult, yoghurt and the ever wonderful beer…

FERMENTATION

So stay a while and listen...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Not So Long Ago…

For most of us in the team, I think this is most probably the second or third time we had carried out fermentation experiment. I can still remember the last time when the class did a fermentation experiment. We were making yoghurt. All we did was to add some “fresh” milk and a scoop of starter culture into a flask and left in an incubator to ferment. Fast, and also simple.

But not this time.

The fermentation process that we carried out this time was away different from that previous yoghurt experiment. This time there were more steps to do, more calculations to think about and also much more time spend on it.

So being a really nice group, we have set up this blog to share you what we did and also explain to you what actually happen during the whole process.
