What is the maximium concentration of alcohol in naturally fermented beverages?
How concentrations greater than this are achieved?
Answers
Fermented beverages:
- The maximum concentration of alcohol in the naturally fermented beverages is around 13 to 16% volume / volume.
- This is the maximum concentration because at this concentration the fermenting yeast poison themselves to death.
- This is why the concentration beyond this is not available in naturally obtained beverages.
- In synthetic processes and other processes like fractional distillation, boiling and collection of the alcohol and mixing them separately into beverages can make them more concentrated like scotch etc.

Hi !
QUESTION:-
What is the maximium concentration of alcohol in naturally fermented beverages?
ANSWER:-
The maximium concentration of alcohol in naturally fermented beverages is 3%.
QUESTION:-
How concentrations greater than this are achieved?
ANSWER:-
Increasing the concentration means that we have more particles in the same volume of solution. This increases the chance of collisions between reactant particles, resulting in more collisions in any given time and a faster reaction. As we increase the pressure of reacting gases, we increase the rate of reaction.
