My future speciality. Technology of Fermentative Production and Winemaking

Our country needs specialists in industry, agriculture, science and other fields.

National University of Food Technologies trains specialists for various branches of food industry. I study at the department of sugar and fermentation technology. The course of studying lasts 5 years. During junior years students study basic subjects such as chemistry, strength of materials, descriptive geometry, drawing and others. During senior years students begin to pay special attention to the subjects connected with their future speciality. Having defended their diplomas, students will get the work according to their speciality.

On graduating from the university students will be engaged in brewering, for example, or deal with wine making techniques. They can control the quality of yeast which is related to successive fermentation. The aim is to ensure a vigorous fermentation which will leave just the right amount of fermentable matter in the beer at racking to provide secondary fermentation in cask. Young specialists may also deal with crushing and primary fermentation of wine, pressing, blending and fining, filtration as well as storage of wine. It should be kept in mind that the quality of grapes determines the quality of wine more than any other factor. So, harvest is the picking of grapes and in many ways the first step in wine production.

I like my speciality because it’s very interesting and useful because wine is important in cuisine not just for its value as a beverage, but as a flavor agent, since its acidity lends balance to rich savory or sweet dishes. Besides, the use of wine in religious ceremonies is common to many cultures and religions. As for beer, it is also a popular beverage that accompanies and enhances a wide range of European as well as Ukrainian cuisines.

Wines, just like people, have babyhood, childhood, adolescence and maturity. Some wines must be aged during a certain period; the others , on the contrary, are good when young. Expensive wine is aged in a cell in oak barrels, which give an additional aroma and 1______. Because of 2_______, wine must be constantly added into the barrels in order to avoid its oxidation of contact with air. Most of white, rose and inexpensive wines of any colour must be drank when 3______. Their most valuable 4________ are freshness and powerful odour. Young wine allows to feel fresh grape taste in full. It contains the whole complex of acids, minerals, 5________ and tannin. However, time is required for these components extracted from grape and fermented to merge together in an 6________ whole and create something called, by analogy with flowers, a bouquet. 7_______, which appears during aging, gradually sinks to the barrel bottom, so wine must be poured out into clean barrels four times a year. After aging wine is brightened with the help of 8________. Then wine is filtered through mechanical 9________ and poured out into the bottles. Quality of the end product depends on the winemaker’s experience, knowledge and integrity at every stage of 10___________ process.
