Biography
Felipe Richter Reis is Professor at the Federal Institute of Parana, campus Colombo and is also professor at the Graduate Program in Food Engineering, Federal University of Parana. He earned his BSc in Food Engineering from the Federal University of Santa Catarina, Brazil, his MSc in Food Technology from the Federal University of Parana, Brazil, and his DSc in Food Engineering from the same institution. He has published three books on food science by a worldclass publisher and is continuously publishing scientific material in this field.
Caroline Mongruel Eleutério dos Santos is Professor at the Federal Institute of Parana, campus Colombo. She earned her BSc in Food Engineering and her MSc in Food Science and Technology from the State University of Ponta Grossa, Brazil, and her DSc in Food Engineering from the Federal University of Parana, Brazil. The theme of her DSc thesis was “Influence of Amino Acids on the Formation of Volatile Compounds in Cider.” Besides teaching, she advises students of the Food Technician Course in their curricular projects and conducts practical research and extension projects in the field of Food Science and Technology.
SUMMARY:
Beverages are a convenient and versatile product that may either serve to fulfill consumers’ needs for hydration or as a pleasant liquor. Among the sensory attributes of beverages that drive consumer acceptability is aroma, directly influenced by the quantity and type of volatile compounds contained inside them. Volatile Compounds Formation in Specialty Beverages contains remarkable information about volatile compounds of specialty beverages, addressing aspects involved from production processes to biochemical pathways.
Divided in two sections, this book answers such key-questions as like how different classes of volatile compounds affect the specialty beverage sensory profile; furthermore, the section on distilled beverages brings supplies information on the contribution of maturation to the beverage volatile profile.
Key Features:
Provides information on the contribution of each class of volatile compounds to the beverages’ aroma
Describes the biochemical pathways involved in the volatile compounds generation
Covers both traditional and exotic, fermented, and distilled beverages
Shows how the production process affects the volatile compounds formation
Organized by experienced editors and written by authors from around the world, this book describes the most important aspects of volatile compounds formation in traditional beverages like whisky and sparkling wine, as well as in exotic beverages like cachaça and kombucha. It is a unique source for food scientists, chemists, chemical engineers and other professionals interested in learning about volatile compounds formation in fermented and distilled beverages.
