Systems and methods for processing non-fermented liquids

Abstract

Embodiments described herein generally relate to systems and methods for processing non-fermented liquids. In some embodiments, non-fermented liquids may be processed into fermentable liquids in relatively short time (e.g., less than or equal to 30 minutes). In certain embodiments, the non-fermented liquids may be processed in relatively small batches (e.g., having a volume of less than or equal to 2 liters). The systems and methods described herein may be useful for producing fermented (e.g., alcoholic) beverages by a consumer. Advantageously, the systems and methods may be for use by a consumer where, upon introduction of a non-fermented liquid into the system, a fermented beverage is produced (e.g., in relatively small batches and/or in relative short times) as compared to traditional fermentation systems and methods (e.g., requiring relatively long fermentation times and/or relatively large batches). In certain embodiments, the systems and methods produce fermented beverages in a substantially continuous manner (e.g., as compared to traditional fermentation systems which utilize batch and/or semi-batch processes). Such systems may be useful for, for example, on-demand brewing of alcoholic beverages.
