''Brettanomyces'' generally produce very low amounts of diacetyl (0.019 - 0.048 mg/L). It is hypothesized that ''Brettanomyces'' can reduce diacetyl during its maturation phase in a similar way to ''Saccharomyces'' species, but this has not been investigated that we are aware of . It has been reported that diacetyl reduction is faster at a lower pH of around 3.5, which is a typical pH range for sour beer and might be one of the contributing factors to a lack of anecdotal reports of diacetyl in sour beer <ref>[https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/jib.381 Michel, M., Meier‐Dörnberg, T., Jacob, F., Methner, F. ‐J., Wagner, R.
