Diacetyl (/ d aɪ j ə ˈ s iː t ə l / dy-yuh-SEE-tuhl; IUPAC systematic name: butanedione or butane-2,3-dione) is an organic compound with the chemical formula (CH 3 CO) 2. It is a yellow liquid with an intensely buttery flavor. It is a vicinal diketone (two C=O groups, side-by-side).
Diacetyl. Diacetyl is a chemical compound produced in yeast during fermentation and later reabsorbed. If the external ambient temperature during fermentation is lower than 26 °C (79 °F), diacetyl is absorbed insufficiently, resulting in a threshold of less than 0.04 mg/liter in beer, which gives the beer a mouthfeel similar to cream cheese.

In a wine intended to be still this is regarded as a serious fault; it can even cause the bottle to explode. Similarly, a wine that has not been put through complete malolactic fermentation may undergo it in bottle, reducing its acidity, generating carbon dioxide, and adding a diacetyl butterscotch aroma.
A wine fault is a sensory-associated (organoleptic [1]) characteristic of a wine that is unpleasant, and may include elements of taste, smell, or appearance, elements that may arise from a "chemical or a microbial origin", where particular sensory experiences (e.g., an off-odor) might arise from more than one wine fault.

Chemical structures showing ethanol fermentation In beer, the metabolic waste products of yeast are a significant factor. In aerobic conditions, the yeast will use in the glycolysis the simple sugars obtained from the malting process , and convert pyruvate , the major organic product of glycolysis, into carbon dioxide and water via the cellular ...

Professional poker player Cory Zeidman has pleaded guilty to federal charges in connection with a yearslong sports betting scheme, authorities said Wednesday.
Malolactic fermentation is most often performed as a secondary fermentation shortly after the end of the primary fermentation, but can sometimes run concurrently with it. The process is standard for most red wine production and common for some white grape varieties such as Chardonnay , where it can impart a "buttery" flavor from diacetyl , a ...
