More efficiency and higher product safety at the lauter tun by using Artificial Neuronal Networks A general description of neuronal networks and their application in the lautering process, part 1

In view of the brew cycles required, the lautering process is the bottleneck in production in many plants. Gone are the days when brewing was a bit like concoction of magic potions and mainly a matter of intuition, as was oftentimes the case well into the 19th century. Specifications for process automation in the brewhouse are therefore growing increasingly complex, particularly when controlling a lauter tun bottleneck process.

Besides guaranteeing process safety, brewers have to produce high extract yields and demonstrate great flexibility in terms of raw material quality, variety of recipe and process techniques. Further, process automation seeks to minimise constant personal supervision by brewery staff.
