Hello AL,

A second fermentation in beer making typically refers to a process known as “bottle conditioning” or “secondary fermentation.” This process involves adding additional yeast and sugar to the beer after it has been brewed and the initial fermentation is complete. The purpose of this second fermentation is to allow the remaining yeast to consume the added sugar and produce carbonation in the beer.

In the context of probiotic beers, the second fermentation is used to create an acidic environment that can kill off harmful bacteria and allow probiotic strains to thrive. This is typically done by adding a probiotic starter culture, such as Lactobacillus or Saccharomyces yeast, during the second fermentation process.

I saw an article about probiotic beer developed by Professor Liu. From there to your article. My question is what does fermented twice mean? As I understand it the yeast consume the sugars in the wort to create carbon dioxide and ethanol. How does a second fermentation take place after the sugar has been consumed? I am an occasional home brewer. I looked up recipes for strong dark Belgium Ale. Did not see anything about a double fermentation.
