Fermentation of High Test Molasses

de Murphy, N.F.  1984.  Highest fermentation rate and alcohol yield during the fermentation of high test molasses were achieved when blackstrap molasses was used for the preparation of the yeast seed. Blackstrap molasses provided the nutrient balance necessary for more efficient fermentation. Similar use of rum distillery slops was also successful. Dehydrated yeast extract, although not economical, proved to be another source of nutrients. Fermentation of High Test Molasses. Sugar y Azucar, September 1984:37-43.
