Welcome to science at home in this experiment we are exploring the fermentation between yeast and sugar. Yeast uses sugar as energy and releases carbon dioxi... Fermentation can produce many organic components, from a range of feedstocks, notably ethanol but also butanol, isopropanol, acetone, 2-3 butanediol, glycol and acetic acid. These products inhibit the fermentation process as they increase in concentration, eventually resulting in termination of fermentation. The amount of sugar will greatly affect the yeast fermentation process because with less sucrose there will be a short supply of glucose molecules for the yeast to ferment with and as a result pH levels will not drop as much due to less CO2 being production.
