Zymurgy is the branch of applied chemistry dealing with fermentation, as in brewing and distilling.
Brewing beer involves both physical and chemical changes. Physical changes include crushing grains and boiling water, while chemical changes occur during fermentation when yeast converts sugars to alcohol and carbon dioxide.
Science is used in beer production through various stages such as water quality testing, yeast selection, fermentation control, and quality assurance. Chemistry is key in understanding the reactions that occur during brewing, while microbiology helps ensure the right yeast strains are used for fermentation. Additionally, physics principles govern processes like heat exchange during boiling and cooling.
The pH level of beer typically ranges from 4.0 to 4.6. This acidity level helps to balance the flavors and preserve the beer. Specific types of beer may have slightly different pH levels depending on their ingredients and brewing processes.
Yes, beer can contain trace amounts of minerals such as magnesium, potassium, and phosphorus from the brewing process and ingredients used. These minerals can vary depending on the source of the water, grains, and additives in the beer.
It is typically called Zymology, which is the universal term for the study of fermentation.

Since this is posted in "Beer and Brewing" I can only assume you mean, the large glass jugs used by homebrewers to ferment beer. Those are called carboys.
The process of adding bubbles to beer is called carbonation. This is typically done by injecting carbon dioxide (CO2) into the beer during the brewing process.
The Miller Brewing Company produces over 40 million barrels of beer each year
