M. HRABÁK

Higher requirements on the quality of final products are closely connected with higher demands on monitoring of individual production steps. In the article are presented criteria of evaluation of lautering process for up-to-date types of brewhouses. There is the influence of solid concentration in unhopped wort on the quality of hopped wort and produced beer described. A main attentation is devoted to the analytical method of determination of solid concentration in unhopped wort in the course of  lautering and its rea-lization in operating conditions. A part of this article deals with practical experience during taking measurements in several breweries in the Czech Republic. Two modifications of the determination of solid concentration (hot and cold determination) are further compared.
