The present level of theoretic knowledge of wort production and attainable level of food industry, incl. measuring and control engineering, makes possible to made a complete solution of whole range of particular parts of the process. The result can promote increasing of brewhouse yield, improving the product quality or increasing of operational efectivity. Demonstrated innovations of the machinery can control and optimize pH, lowering undesirable influence of oxygen and improving redox potencial of mash. Multifunctional application of measuring technique optimizes lautering, which can be further accelerated by sophisticated way of drawing of the first...

Acid sanitation of CKT by travelling grate system.Peer-reviewed article

The modified sanitation procedure, which is based on addition of concentrated acid and fresh water only into a vessel with higher concentration of the acid, has been called sanitation with travelling grate by authors. Such a model enables partial renewal of solutions, and also move of organic impurities in the direction of concentration gradient, from the acid of higher concentration to that of lower concentration, and further to rinsing water. From the viewpoint of overall yearly cost on cleaning of cylindroconical fermentor tanks, it is possible to estimate the amount of 0,33 CZK per hectoliter of green beer. From the microbiological point of view,...
