When taking a broad look at fermentation and how it applies to food and drink, it becomes clear that beer is just one example in a variety of zymurgy that also includes bread, cheese/yogurt, kombucha, certain meats, and many types of pickled vegetables.
In this seminar, Gabe explores the process of fermentation, why it is important, the types of fermentation, and the topic of live cultures and probiotics.
