The actor turned down the role, a decision he described as “one of the bigges

White Noise Makes Beer Brew Faster, Scientists Claim

gizmodo.com Margherita Bassi 2025-11-05 02:10:36

Music can make people do things faster, with running, dancing, and doing chores being good examples. It seems, however, that we’re not alone in picking up the pace at the sound of a good tune. Researchers have discovered that playing a sound commonly known as white noise can shorten fermentation—arguably the most important step in brewing beer—by 21 to 31 hours, without markedly changing the flavor. This could help breweries increase beer production without diminishing quality. How sound chang
