Abstract
In this study the combinatory effect of several extrinsic factors on reduced (vacuum) pressure fermentations was explored. Specifically, the pressure, temperature, and FAN levels of high gravity Saccharomyces cerevisiae fermentations were manipulated, while yeast morphology was assessed using automated multivariate image analysis. Fermentation attributes including yeast growth, viability, and ethanol production were monitored using standard methods. Across all FAN and temperature levels, reduced pressure (vacuum pressure) fermentations resulted in a greater than or equal number of cells in suspension, higher average viability, and greater ethanol production in comparison to atmospheric pressure fermentations; however, the magnitude of the effect varied with extrinsic factors. The image analysis revealed that while yeast size was extremely variable across all fermentations, the ratio of vacuole to cell area consistently decreased over each fermentation and could be used to predict the point where the yeast experienced a sharp decline in viability ending the fermentation. This study showed that a combination of traditional measurements and novel automated analyses can be used by brewers to anticipate performance and endpoints of their fermentations, and that reduced pressure can have significant effects upon the rate and final ethanol concentration of variable industrial fermentations.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
