Abstract
A fermentable sugar feed containing fermentable sugar oligomers is continuously converted by fermentation to dilute aqueous ethanol ('beer') in a series of agitated fermentation vessels employing at least two strains of yeast, one of which provides a relatively high rate of conversion of fermentable sugar to ethanol and the other of which provides a relatively high rate of conversion of fermentable sugar oligomer to ethanol.
