Sažetak

Microorganisms (fungi, yeasts and bacteria) largely present on barley and wheat, raw materials used for malt production, have great effect on the final product, malt. Consequently, microorganisms also affect the quality of wort and beer. Although bacteria and yeasts are dominant species on barley and wheat before and after the harvest, the real problem are fungi, due to their harmful metabolites that affect health safety of raw material and the quality of malt itself. Particularly problematic fungi are those from genus Fusarium that infl ict economical damage to the whole cereal industry, and due to the possibility of the mycotoxins production, they present health threat to humans and animals. It is therefore
necessary to monitor microfl ora throughout the productive chain „barley-beer“ and to suppress the proliferation of unwanted microorganisms, before and during malting.
