The concept of cropping yeast as soon as the main fermentation is finished, the shortest possible storage time of brewing yeast from cropping to pitching and limitation of stress factors was used for the design of the yeast management system in the Gambrinus brewery. The yeast room was re-built from the original 6 storage tanks with manual connections to 2 fully automatic yeast collection/storage vessels on load cells. (The 2 vessels vs 6 vessels enforce short storage times). By means of the dynamic model of collection, assimilation and wort pitching, the delay of yeast cropping from CCT as well as yeast storage times decreased to between 12 - 24 hrs....

It is already the fourth year that the brewing quality of barley crop has been assessed. The main topic of this article is the comparison of industrially brewed malts from different regions of the Czech Republic. The malts were compared by means of the classic technology in a semipilot experimental mini brewery. The attention was given especially to technological aspects and analytical differences of particular brews namely in both the intermediate product (hopped wort) and in the finished beer.In addition, the assessment of sensorial quality of beers and their reciprocal comparison was part and parcel of this process. No significant anomaly was discovered...
