Two technological processes were developed: production by the controlled fermentation at a temperature of 12 ˇăC and 25 ˇăC. Results showed that the fermentation at 25 ˇăC caused a considerable decrease in the pH and density, with increased rates of alcohol that reaches 4.86% vol. after 7 days of fermentation. However, at 12 ˇăC, the pH changes very little with an alcohol content of 3.37% vol. The finished product (beer) retains a brown color, a significant nutritional quality and flavor characteristic of the fruit. The microbiological analysis didn t indicate the presence of pathogens or germs that cause alteration of beer quality. %K sorghum %K banana %K fermentation %K hygienic quality %K beer %U http://www.remise.ma/images/V2012-1/DAHOUENON%20et%20al,%202012.pdf
