Which of the following is not used for preparing alcoholic beverages?
(1) Glucose
(2) Fructose
(3) Saccharomyces Ferment
(4) Lactose
Answer: 4
Lactose is not used for preparing alcoholic beverages.
Lactose is a sugar found in milk, and it is not typically used in the production of alcoholic beverages. Alcoholic fermentation primarily involves sugars like glucose, fructose, and other fermentable carbohydrates, and the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae (or other types of yeast) is used to ferment these sugars into alcohol.
