Changes

During both primary and secondary fermentation, a complex set of interactions occurs between the various yeast and bacteria species. Much of this is yet unknown scientifically. For example, the production of [[Lactic Acid|lactic acid]] by lactic acid bacteria not only stresses and limits growth of ''S. cerevisiae'', but it can also turn off "glucose repression", meaning that instead of consuming simple sugars first, ''S. cerevisiae'' stops choosing which sugar types to consume first and consumes all sugar types indiscriminately. This can result in under-attenuation problems in the short run, but also more residual sugars for ''Brettanomyces'' (see [[Lactic Acid|lactic acid]] for details). Another example is that co-fermenting with brewer's yeast and ''Lactobacillus'' can create a different flavor profile than if they are staggered with a kettle souring method (see [[Lactobacillus#Effects_on_Mixed_Fermentation|effects of ''Lactobacillus'' on mixed fermentation]]). Another example is that some studies support that in nitrogen rich substrates, ''S. cerevisiae'' will synthesize simpler amino acids from the more complex nitrogen sources, and those amino acids contribute to the sustained survival of both ''Lactobacillus'' and ''Brettanomyces'' in the more stressful, post-fermentation environment <ref>[https://academic.oup.com/femsyr/article-abstract/17/4/fox018/3867021/The-influence-of-Dekkera-bruxellensis-on-the?redirectedFrom=fulltext The influence of Dekkera bruxellensis on the transcriptome of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and on the aromatic profile of synthetic wine must.
