Wfm. Roling et al., COMPARISON BETWEEN TRADITIONAL AND INDUSTRIAL SOY-SAUCE (KECAP) FERMENTATION IN INDONESIA, Journal of fermentation and bioengineering, 81(3), 1996, pp. 275-278
Growth of lactic acid bacteria and amino acid production at an Indones
ian soy sauce manufacturer, employing modern Japanese process technolo
gy, indicated that brine fermentation for one month is sufficient for
industrial kecap production. Compared to traditional Indonesian soy sa
uce fermentation, application of modern Japanese process technology re
sulted in an obvious but not essential yeast fermentation.
