Quality control for beer brewers & breweries

All processes in the beer production must be designed to ensure continuously high product quality

Beer brewhouse

Beer is brewed using naturally grown products that vary from year to year and from harvest to harvest. The brewer must react to these changes to produce a beer of stable quality, and moreover, the beer must also taste the same year after year in order to meet the customer's expectations. To hit this moving target, a lot of experience is necessary. And that is the art of brewing beer.

~2

billion hectolitres

of beer were produced worldwide in 2019. Consistent and stable product quality is key for all breweries. Benefit from Endress+Hauser’s competence and experience to achieve this goal. Sources: www.statista.com

Brewhouse

Efficient conversion of starch into malt sugar must be ensured. To find the right moment within the certain processes, innovative and accurate measurement technologies are crucial.

Our expertise in the field

Endress+Hauser offers the largest product portfolio to optimize every single processes in your brewhouse.

  • Ensure highest reliability and accuracy using non-glass pH sensors like CPS77E with Memosens technology and retractable holders.
  • To see the real yield, the multi-frequency Coriolis mass flowmeter Promass Q provides temperature compensated flow, totalized value and totalized Brix or Plato° values even in entrained gas applications.
  • Rely on highest reliablity in your mash tun level measurement using the temperature compensated Deltapilot FMB50 hydrostatic level sensor . Remote electronics make access easy.
  • Optimize raw material usage by adding liquified adjuncts and dextrose with high accuracy. The Coriolis mass flowmeter Promass F100 provides the best temperature stability and precise measurement.

Fermentation

The goal of fermentation is to convert the malt sugar into alcohol. Reliable measurement of temperature, extract, and alcohol as well as monitoring the fermentation process are crucial to ensure consistent quality batch after batch.

Our expertise in the field

High quality RTDs in hygienic design combined with ultra-fast response time guarantee optimum temperature control. Continuous measurement of all relevant parameters in the fermentation process provides laboratory-accurate and reliable information in real time, thus enabling precise process control.

Filtration

The major challenge of the conventional filtration process is related to the diatomaceous earth filtration because the diatomaceous earth can vary in quality. It is problematic for handling and disposal since it is hazardous and generates large amounts of effluent.

Our expertise in the field

Differential pressure is a common indicator for filter performance. Conventional DP transmitters or electronic DP systems provide the needed reliability.

Color based in-line detection of beer types

Breweries often produce many different types of beer. It is quite a challenge to keep a clear overview in production to ensure proper filling.

Our expertise in the field

To ensure production runs smoothly and to reduce beer loss, manufacturers must, where possible, distinguish the individual beer types automatically and directly inline. Dual-channel photometers are used for the measurement, making it possible to analyze color absorbance according to EBC guidelines. Together with a conductivity measurement, the individual types can be identified.

Instruments in the CIP process ©Endress+Hauser
Insights

Cleaning in place (CIP) optimization

CIP concentration is critical to food safety but also has big impact on the use of detergent and wastewater costs.

Our expertise in the field

Highly accurate conductivity measurement ensures the exact calculation of the required concentration. Level measurement of aggressive chemicals can be solved using different options depending on tank size and user preference.
