===Mixed Culture Fermentation===
Cider fermentation occurs in up to three phases: an oxidative phase, which occurs due to the presence of apiculate or non-Saccharomyces yeast and is usually only seen with wild fermented ciders, and it responsible for the production of aromatic and flavor compounds; an alcoholic phase, in which mainly Saccharomyces spp. out compete the oxidative phase yeast species and carryout out the bulk of the fermentation; and a malolactic fermentation phase.<ref>http://www.scielo.br/scielo.php?script=sci_arttext&pid=S1516-89132013000500016</ref>
