Cider Flavour Chemistry

🍺 Cider Flavour Chemistry

How does apple juice become cider?

This visual shows how fermentation and ageing transform:

• 🍋 Malic acid softens via MLF
• 🍍 Esters bloom with temperature and yeast
• 🍷 Tannins polymerise to smooth out grip
• 🍬 Sugars and polyols add body
• 🌰 Aldehydes shift toward nutty, oxidative depth

Great for cider makers, drinks educators, and training sessions.
