What are the accounts of the use and development of distiller's yeast since Shang Dynasty?

There are two main processes to make wine with grain: decomposing starch into glucose, and then converting glucose into alcohol and carbon dioxide. In fact, this is the koji-making process, that is, the process of cultivating beneficial microorganisms for food fermentation.

Shangshu, which narrates the history of Yin and Shang Dynasties? The words "If alcohol and aldehyde are made, it will only be land to the tiller" in Shuo Wen Jie Zi indicate that grains with microorganisms were already used in brewing at that time, that is, distiller's yeast and germinated grains, that is, glutinous rice.

With the development of koji-making technology, people's understanding of microbial activities is getting deeper and deeper, and their observation is getting more and more detailed.
