====Temperature and Aromatic and Sensory Compounds====
Just as with other strains of ''Saccharomyces cerevisiae'' used in fermentation, the fermentation temperature can have a significant effect on the different aromatic and flavor compounds produced by kveik [https://nmbu.brage.unit.no/nmbu-xmlui/handle/11250/2681970?show=full Aasen's Master's thesis] looked at fermenting three different full culture kveiks, Gamlegrua, Gausemel and Ørjasæter, and US-05 as a control. She tested three different fermentation temperatures, 22°C, 30°C, and 37°C. In general, after 7 days of incubation time, all of the yeasts had higher levels of the esters ethyl acetate, isoamyl acetate,and ethyl hexanoate at the 22°C or 30°C, and nearly half the amounts of esters at 37°C. These were esters were also measured at day 2, and at that time they were much higher in the 37°C fermentation, suggesting that prolonged exposure to the warmer temperature may have dissipated these esters. Ethyl octanoate tended to have slightly higher amounts at 22°C or 30°C, but the differences between the different fermentation temperatures were smaller, and in the case of the Gausemel kveik there was no significant different at all for this ester <ref name="Aasen" />.
