  • Beer and Malt Handbook: Beer Types (PDF)
    1. BEER TYPES The world is full of different beers, divided into a vast array of different types. Many classifications and precise definitions of beers having been formulated over the years, ours are not the most rigid, since we seek simply to review some of the most important beer types. In addition, we present a few options for the malt used for each type-hints for brewers considering different choices of malt when planning a new beer. The following beer types are given a short introduction to our Viking Malt malts. TOP FERMENTED BEERS: • Ales • Stouts and Porters • Wheat beers BOTTOM FERMENTED BEERS: • Lager • Dark lager • Pilsner • Bocks • Märzen 4 BEER & MALT HANDBOOK. BACKGROUND Known as the ‘mother’ of all pale lagers, pilsner originated in Bohemia, in the city of Pilsen. Pilsner is said to have been the first golden, clear lager beer, and is well known for its very soft brewing water, which PILSNER contributes to its smooth taste. Nowadays, for example, over half of the beer drunk in Germany is pilsner. DESCRIPTION Pilsner was originally famous for its fine hop aroma and strong bitterness. Its golden color and moderate alcohol content, and its slightly lower final attenuation, give it a smooth malty taste. Nowadays, the range of pilsner beers has extended in such a way that the less hopped and lighter versions are now considered ordinary lagers. TYPICAL ANALYSIS OF PILSNER Original gravity 11-12 °Plato Alcohol content 4.5-5.2 % volume C olor6 -12 °EBC Bitterness 2 5-40 BU COMMON MALT BASIS Pale Pilsner Malt is used according to the required specifications.

  • Quality Changes of Naturally Fermented Kvass During
    FOODBALT 2014 QUALITY CHANGES OF NATURALLY FERMENTED KVASS DURING PRODUCTION STAGES Ivo Lidums, Daina Karklina, Asnate Kirse Department of Food Technology, Faculty of Food Technology, Latvia University of Agriculture, Liela Street 2, Jelgava, Latvia, e-mail: [email protected] Abstract Commercially available beverages sold as kvass are kvass drinks and malt extract drinks, made by diluting grain extract concentrates with water and adding colourings, different flavours and artificial sweeteners. Kvass quality parameters are defined by the Regulation No 926/2010 Quality and classification requirements for kvass and kvass (malt) beverage of the Cabinet of Ministers of the Republic of Latvia Naturally fermented kvass is made from rye bread rusks without additional additives. The aim of this research was to assess the quality changes of naturally fermented kvass during production stages. Experiments were carried out at the Latvia University of Agriculture Department of Food Technology. Dry matter (refractometer, ISO 6496), active acidity (LVS EN ISO 10523:2012) and sensory properties (25 panellists; line scale ISO 4121:2003) were analysed in kvass samples during production stages. During fermentation stage of naturally fermented kvass, pH drops from 4.08 to 3.77 and in later production stages pH is between 3.82 and 3.88, pH levels do not exceed the index values of the Regulation of the Cabinet of Ministers. Relative dry matter content reduced from 5.96% to 4.94%. Sensory evaluation showed that the intensity of flavour, aroma and acidity was most pronounced in kvass sample C (total production time 156 h), however, colour was most pronounced in kvass sample A (total production time 36 h).

Doctor of technical sciences professor Candidate of economic sciences Plekhanov Russian University of Economics (Stremyanny lane, 36, Moscow, 117997, Russia) ABSTRACT Kvass is the national fermentation drink. It has growing popularity both from consumers and manufacturers in most countries, and as a national Russian brand it is needed in protection of the authenticity and compliance according to the state standards. This protection also includes the intellectual property protection. Small businesses began to show special attention to its production. Kvass popularity and praise of its consumer properties, give rise to opportunities to create not only real drink, but also imitation forms of soft drinks with preservatives, food dyes, sugar and flavorings (Eliseev & Alexeyeva, 2017).

Functional food is the most comfortable, natural form of saturation and enrichment the human body with micronutrients, as vitamins, minerals and other useful components.
