Cider typically contains a variety of microorganisms, primarily yeast and bacteria. The primary yeast involved in fermentation is Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which converts sugars in the apple juice into alcohol and carbon dioxide. Wild yeasts and lactic acid bacteria, such as Oenococcus oeni, can also be present, contributing to the complexity of flavors and aromas in the cider. Additionally, acetic acid bacteria may be present, especially in more traditional or open-fermented ciders, where they can produce vinegar-like notes.
