EBC Symposium 2023 – Save the date

Come together | The next EBC symposium will be held from 8–10 October 2023 at Stiegl Brewery in Salzburg, Austria! This was the outcome of deliberations set in motion a few months ago when the Italian Brewers Association Assobirra announced that they would not be able to host the meeting in Rome, as had been originally planned.

For the symposium, a “Call for Abstracts” will be launched in February under the topic: “Fermentations as an opportunity for sustainably brewed and high-quality products.” The following sub-topics will hopefully attract interest from brewing scientists from all areas – breweries, the academic field, and – last by not least – from suppliers:

• Yeast and bacterial fermentations in the brewery – technological concepts reviewed
• Yeast propagation – process control and analysis
• Best practices in fermentation control leading to hi-quality products
• The role of fermentations in the production of no- and low-alcohol beer
• Bioremediation and upcycling of brewery fermentation co-products

The symposium will be followed immediately afterwards (10–12 October, also at Stiegl Brewery, Sazburg) by the 13th Technical Meeting of the EBC Brewing Science Group, reserved exclusively to BSG members and their appointed guests.
