Application of the Mitscherlich growth law to fermentation.Peer-reviewed article
M. GÄRTNER
Kvasny Prum. 1961; 7(12): 265-272 | DOI: 10.18832/kp1961037 
The author has supplemented the latest work of M. Gaertner and prepared it for publishing. Gaertner was the first to try to apply the second Mitscherlich law, expressing the time-to-yield relation, to fermentation phenomena and to study of fermentation curves. He succeeded in finding mathematical and graphical methods for determining constants of the Mitscherlich equations. The graphical method is convenient, easy to apply and secures satisfactory results.(In Slovak, English summary only)

Experience with the shifting heap method, which has been applied experimentally at Braník brewery, indicate, that this technology can be recommended for increasing the output of installations and facilitating works on Sundays. The quality of malt is by no means affected. Steeped, dry, swallen and partly sprouted barley can be mashed-in from shifting heap, where means for adequate ventilation are provided, after 71/2 days, since the quality of malt in the final phases of dressing is quite homogenous.(In Czech, English summary only)

The Zeiss-Pulfrich nephelometer has been applied for measuring the intensity of formazine turbidity of beer. The EBC method has been applied and obtained values are compared in diagrams with absolute turbidity. The article deals with the calibration technique based upon the application of formazine solutions giving artificial turbidity, as well as with the evaluating methods used for classifying the clarity of beer. Results of several tests quoted in the article indicate the differences between various filtering methods. The Zeiss-Pulfrich nephelometer can be used for various other tests of similar character and its application in laboratories fo breweries...
