An acid formed in trace amounts during yeast fermentation and in larger quantities during malolactic fermentation, in which bacteria converts malic acid into lactic acid and carbon dioxide. See malolactic fermentation.

Also used for lactic souring of some mashes. Lactic acid should be used very sparingly, if at all, and should be infused using a pipette.
