Brettanomyces detection. Kunkee and Amerine (51) wrote of the problems associated with yeast detection "The major problem of studies on yeast ecology results from the methods used for isolating the microflora. So many different techniques have been used that comparisons of frequency of occurrence must be made with caution". One compendium entitled "Media and Methods for Growing Yeasts" provides reference to the variety of techniques (52). ...

Temperature has an impact on yeast development and fermentation kinetics. According to Fleet and Heard (1992), temperature can affect indigenous yeast ecology. The authors suggest that different strains are more or less adapted to different temperatures, ranging from 10 to 30°C. More precisely, the growth rate varies for each strain according to temperature—for instance.
