  • To produce alcohol from Mume (Prunus mume Sieb. et Zucc) fruits, fermentation conditions were optimized by a response surface methodology (RSM) using the fractional factorial design with 3 variables and 5 levels. The coefficient of determination ($R^2$) of response surface regression equation for alcohol production were 0.9276. Optimum conditions for alcohol production were involved with 8.39% of sugar content, 28.86$^{\circ}C$ of fermentation temperature and 3.84 days of fermentation time. Finally, predicted level of alcohol production at these conditions was 5.24%.
