Turbidity – New Systems for Brewing Process Optimization 3 Turbidity – new systems for brewing process optimization METTLER TOLEDO is well established in the brewing industry, providing analytical inline instruments used by brewers around the world to help establish more cost-effective and reliable process automation. Previously our customers have been able to select systems for continuous measurement of dissolved oxygen, pH and conduc- tivity. However, we are pleased to announce the release of a new turbidity line with specific advantages for brewing – accompanied of course by the same high standard of application and service support that master brewers and quality assurance managers appreciate from a competent partner. What is turbidity? and reproducible measurements. The Turbidity is basically cloudiness in a measurement of forward and 90° scattered liquid, which in wort or beer is caused by light has been proven to be the best optical the presence of undissolved particles such method for turbidity in the range 0…100 as yeast, proteins or diatomaceous earth.

The influence of different colored principle of light scattering is used in liquids on the intensity of the scattered inline turbidimeters to measure the light beams must be compensated by concentration of the undissolved particles: simultaneous measurement of a reference the higher the particle concentration the light beam or by the use of a light source higher the scattered light intensity. The emitting light in the near infrared range of information on particle concentration is the spectra. One of these techniques is directly used to control individual process always implemented in the turbidimeters steps. described here. What are the optical set-ups?

Control of dissolved oxygen is just as crucial because it is a fundamental indicator for taste, shelf life and clarity. Oxygen uptake at the lauter tun already has a direct influence on turbidity and color as well as on quality of bitterness. INGOLD DO, pH and newly introduced turbidity measurement systems ensure optimal inline process control and help you produce the highest quality beer possible. pH measurement A complete range of hygienic and CIP suitable pH electrodes are available with low drift and long service life, including gel-elec- trolyte, temperature compensated pH electrodes The InPro 3200 makes high-accuracy performance possible under low pressure due to a partly flowing reference junction.

  • The Effect of Temperature on Short Term Ethyl Acetate Degradation in Beer
    THE EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE ON SHORT TERM ETHYL ACETATE DEGRADATION IN BEER Michelle Pather Project Supervisor: Alisyn Nedoma The University of Auckland, department of Chemical and Materials Engineering II Abstract Macs Hop Rocker was subjected to short term ageing and the subsequent changes in flavour chemical concentrations were investigated. Three different ageing conditions - cold, room temperature, and heated were used. In particular, ethyl acetate, an ester, was investigated. Ethyl acetate provides a pleasant fruity flavour in beer, a decrease in this allows stale flavours to be more pronounced. Gas chromatography combined with flame ionisation detection (GC-FID) was used to measure the changes in the level of ethyl acetate. The first step involved crafting a method for temperature changes in the GC-FID. Due to time constraints, once this method was developed, only three measurements were made over a one week period. Previous research showed that for other beer types, ethyl acetate concentration decreased over time. From the results obtained in this research no trend was found. However, it is suggested that further research is done, involving more measurements over a longer time period, before any conclusions are made.

  • Beer Advisor
    Use Case Name: Beer Advisor ​ Point of Contact: Lucas Standaert ([email protected]), Marcelo de Castro ([email protected]), ​ Anna Yaroslaski ([email protected]), Sam Stouffer ([email protected]) Beer Advisor Summary Beer is said to be one of the oldest alcoholic drinks created by humans. In fact, we have been creating different types of beers for millennia and, hence, due to the wide variety of beers with different flavor profiles and styles, choosing a beer is not a simple matter. There are also many people who are picky about what they drink, as they may not like certain styles of beer. There can also be the concerns of alcohol content and brewery location, as people want to support their local beer scene. In this context, the Beer Advisor helps people in the difficult task which is finding the perfect beer. The application combines information from different databases in order to find the perfect beer match considering the user's requests. Goal The goal of this application is to provide users with beer recommendations by matching their preferences with attributes of commercially available beers. Requirements ● The system must be able to differ beers between styles, alcohol content, and other key factors. ● It will return a listing of beers with all the information the system can provide on them. ● It will have an extensive catalog of beers obtained from trustworthy data sources. Scope The application will only recommend beers and will not include other alcohols such as spirits or wines. The beer selection and beer attributes used for recommendation will be limited to those provided by the application’s data sources: beer.db and opendatasoft.

The colour of beer is an important user standard whereby the consumer evaluates the beverage first, before the smell and taste are applied. The process of beer brewing using two mash process was provided in the experimental brewery in the Department Univer- sity of Life Sciences Prague (the beer brand “Suchdolsky Jenik”). Laboratory trials were focused on the study of influence of the colour of malt, hops and brewer's yeast. These raw materials were tested by spectrophotometric measurements according to the colours CIELAB system by the Spectrophotome- ter CM-600d Konica Minoltaand Spectrophotometer HACH Lange DR 500. The effect of four different types of malts and malt grist (Pilsner Malt, Munich Malt, Caramel Malt and Colouring Malt), Saazer Variety of hops on colour of produced beer was analysed. Key words: brewhouse; hops; malt; spectrophotometer; yeast. INTRODUCTION The beer is very old cultural drink, our knowledge of beer production fades into the dim an distant past. This time is probably linked to the settling of the hunter-gatherers and the beginning of grain cultivation, around 12 000 years ago.

  • Exploring Emerging Potential & Challenges of Extended Collaboration for Scotland's Craft Beer Sector
    Crafting Growth: Exploring Emerging Potential & Challenges of Extended Collaboration for Scotland’s Craft Beer Sector Programme team Dr Juliette Wilson, Dr Maria Karampela, Prof Sarah Dodd (University of Strathclyde) Prof Mike Danson (Heriot-Watt University) Overarching Objectives The overall aim of the Crafting Growth project was to provide a platform for Scottish brewers and relevant industry bodies to work alongside their counterparts from across Europe to: • identify and scope key growth areas of concern in the craft beer sector where creative future developments are required; • apply international academic expertise in small business growth that has been successfully used to address issues in other countries and industries; • facilitate sharing of knowledge and practice, to inform and influence SME and sectoral policy and support; • co-create collaborative action plans as launch-pads for future sector growth. The focus on this particular context, the craft beer industry, was decided for many reasons. The sector has exhibited impressive growth levels in recent years, and has been highlighted as a critical sector in the Scottish economy. Specifically, it features prominently in Scotland’s Food & Drink most recent export plan as a high-potential product. Much of this growth has been attributed to the strong levels of collaboration in the sector, as evidenced by co-brewing and joint distribution practices. However, insight from research undertaken by the core programme team as well as discussions with industry representatives has highlighted key areas where the sector faces barriers and difficulties that limit further growth potential. The project attempted to uncover those areas and facilitate the development of co-created solutions.
