The banana wine vinegar production process took 28
days and had physiochemical characteristics of 6.0%
(v/v) acetic acid, 5.0oBrix, and pH of 2.9 which complied
with the standard ranges of brewed vinegar after
complete fermentation. The aroma of the vinegar
produced was appreciated by the consumers who were
acquainted with vinegar. This study therefore, showed
that matooke peels can be used as an ideal substrate for
production good quality vinegar. This not only increases
the economical and food value of matooke but also
provides a way of utilizing banana waste in Uganda.
