  1. Brewing and baking and mycoprotein Ancient biotechnologies (mycoprotein is not ancient!)

  2. Bread making • Basic ingredients are wheat, water, yeast, fat, sugar and salt. • Dough is made by mixing ingredients together. • Dough then ferments at 27oC in a humid atmosphere.

  3. Bread making • The yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, feeds on the sugar breaking it down anaerobically to ethanol and carbon dioxide.

  4. Bread making • The bubbles of CO2 remain trapped in the sticky dough causing it to rise. • Dough is then cut and placed in loaf tins. • Dough then goes through a final fermentation at 45oC.

  5. Bread making • The baking kills the yeast, evaporates off the alcohol and cooks the flour. • A modern bakery can make 10 000 loaves of bread per hour.

  6. Beer Making • Most beers are made from barley and hops. • The process consists of seven stages!

  7. Beer Making Malting • Barley steeped in water • Then allowed to germinate. • Gibberellic acid is added to speed up germination • During process amylases are mobilised (to hydrolyse seeds starch into maltose)

  8. Beer Making Kilning • Malt is gradually heated to between 65 and 80oC • This kills the embryos without destroying the amylase. • Higher the temp. – the darker the beer.

  9. Beer Making Milling • Barley grains then crushed into a powder called grist.

  10. Beer Making Mashing • The grist is mixed with water at 65o C. • The amylase breaks down the starch into sugars. • The nutrient rich liquor (sweet wort) is separated from the spent grains. • The spent grains can be used as cattle feed.

  11. Beer Making Boiling • Hops added for bitter flavour • Further enzyme action is stopped • Full flavour is extracted.

  12. Beer Making Fermentation • Boiled wort is cooled to 30oC and innoculated with yeast • Left to ferment for 7 to 10 days. • Sugars turned into alcohol and CO2

  13. Beer Making Finishing • Beer is filtered (spent yeast sold to make yeast extract – Marmite) • Modern beers are pasteurised, standardised and finally bottled or canned.

  14. Mycoprotein A food protein made from microorganisms

  15. Mycoprotein • Made from the hyphae of the fungus Fusarium graminearum • Cultured on a solution of glucose from cereal starch (carbon source) ammonia (nitrogen source) mineral salts choline (promotes longer hyphal growth)

  16. Mycoprotein • Cultured in air lift fermenter • Culture maintained at 30oC to promote optimum growth rate. • Grown by continuous culture. • High in protein but low in fat – a healthy food?

  17. Mycoprotein • Problem is that it contains too much RNA • This has to be removed by enzymes. • Tastes of nothing! • Fungal hyphae do resemble myofibrils in meat. • Marketed under the name of Quorn.
