Beer Applications
Lauter tun ▪ Wort boiler ▪ Filter ▪ Filler & Blending ▪ CIP

Lauter tun

Applications:
- Control of the complete lautering process
- Precise detection of the sparge water point at the end of the lautering process
- Continuous determination of the actual extract concentration in the buffer tank or wort boiler using an external flow meter

Advantages:
- Optimal initial extract concentration in wort boiler or buffer tank
- Reduction of fresh water demand
- Optimal utilization of lauter tune and an efficient wort production
- Control of the complete lautering process including the sparging process with high accuracy
- Detection of the sparge water point at the end of the lautering process

Extract Characteristics
- Control of complete lautering process
- Accurate sparging process
- Detection of sparge water point at the end of the lautering process

Wort Boiler

Applications:
- Monitoring of the concentration during the complete boiling process
- Precise control of the final wort concentration
- Immersion type sensor for application in the boiler

Advantages:
- Avoid extensive maintenance effort due to traditional bypass solutions
- Reduction of additional rinsing and cleaning cycles
- Reduced labor and energy consumption
- Reproducible boiling process

Filter

Applications:
- Precise, gravity controlled separation of first and last runnings
- Feed control of recovery beer or first and last runnings in the filter inlet

Advantage:
- Extensive cost reduction

Filler & Blending

Applications:
- Continuous monitoring of original gravity during the filling process
- Documentation and data logging of original gravity (ISO9000 und HACCP).
- Event tracking according FDA recommendations
- Separation of different brands
- Control of original gravity at High-Gravity Brewing

Advantages:
- Display of wort concentration temperature of beer
- Continuous logging of original gravity during the filling
- Immediate detection at faulty process conditions (mismatch of bottles and labels)
- Control of the filler, if the actual wort concentration leaves a specified range, the filler stops and the beer can run into a buffer tank
- Separation of first and last running beer: Automatic separation of first and last running by setting of reverse points
- Analog input for any CO2-analyser including automatic compensation function

CIP

- Detection of different CIP phases
- Detection of organic agents like peracetic acid without expensive markers
- Control of CIP-management

CIP NaOH - Blending

- Allows cost reduction by purchasing low price, highly concentrated caustic soda
- Blending is necessary to avoid crystallization
- Linear characteristic over the complete blending range
