The skins and solids in the must will float to the top of the fermenter, forming a cake that the carbon dioxide cannot escape from. This leaves only the portion of juice underneath the cake in contact with the skins.
Grape skins are normally covered with bacteria, molds, and yeast. The wild yeasts such as Pichia, Kloeckera, and Torulopsis are often more numerous than the wine yeast Saccharomyces.
