To effectively isolate acetic acid bacteria for producing makgeolli vinegar, various products were researched, and Acetobacter pasteurianus CK-1, a strain that is excellent in acetic acid production, was finally isolated. The optimal growth temperature of the isolated strain was confirmed to be 30℃, and it grew well in the pH range of 5.5~6.5, with optimal growth at pH 6. A. pasteurianus CK-1 had the most active proliferation when the initial ethanol concentration in the medium was 4%, and growth was possible even at an ethanol concentration of 7%. When inoculating the isolated strain into makgeolli to induce acetic acid fermentation, the pH at the beginning of fermentation was 3.54, which was gradually lowered to 2.77 after 18 days of fermentation. The acidity was 0.75% at the beginning of fermentation and gradually started to increase from the 4th day of fermentation. The final acidity at the end of fermentation was 5.54%. In the vinegar fermented by inoculating A. pasteurianus CK-1, acetic acid content was detected to be as high as 3,575.7±48.6 mg%, and the malic acid and citric acid contents were 2,150.8±27.6 and 55.8±3.7 mg%, respectively. Further, it was confirmed that the content and ratio of the organic acids produced significantly differed depending on the type of inoculated bacterial strain. During acetic acid fermentation, the populations of yeast and A. pasteurianus CK-1 were inversely changed. In the initial stage of fermentation, yeast dominated, and after 10 days of fermentation, A. pasteurianus CK-1 slowly proliferated and reached stationary phase.
