*Means in same rows shown with different letters are significantly different (p < 0.05).

** I = standard inoculation, 4I = 4-fold inoculation, 8I = 8-fold inoculation, (1+3)I = standard inoculation before fermentation (primary inoculation) and 3-fild inoculation at the end of fermentation (secondary inoculation), and etc.
