High Gravity Brewing module Water deaeration, blending and carbonation in one process unit
For many years, it has been widely accepted to blend deaerated water into a strong brew achieving a desired taste and alcohol level and a higher output rate without major changes in the brewhouse and cold block. This process is called High Gravity Brewing (HGB).
After adjusting the gravity by means of deserted water, sometimes called brewing liquor, the beer needs to be carbonated. The three processes, deaeration, blending and carbonisation can now be found in one process unit offered by Alfa Laval.
The ongoing globalisation and heavy competition in the brewing industry forces changes in the classical brewing process and requires adaptation of new process equipment and technology. This process is called High Gravity Brewing (HGB).....
