“WHAT IS THE BEST PASTEURIZATION METHOD FOR BEER AND BEVERAGES?”

Article Release for Brewmasters and Beverage Makers,
sponsored by PRO Engineering / Manufacturing Inc.

Article Excerpt:

If you thought that pasteurization was only for milk, it’s time to think again. Pasteurization is important for beer and other beverages, too!


“The reason why this is so important is that pasteurization heats the beverage up to temperatures of at least 145ºF. At those temperatures, bacteria and microbes die, leaving a clean and safe beverage.

The question is, what is the best pasteurization method for beer & beverages? In this guide, we’ll take a look at a few different methods for the pasteurization of beer & beverages and their benefits.

Why Pasteurize Your Beer:

Before we start examining different beer pasteurization methods for microbreweries or large breweries, let’s talk about why you should pasteurize your beer in the first place. After all, this isn’t a legal requirement.

When making craft beer, a beverage maker has to decide whether he or she wants to pasteurize their beer or not. Unpasteurized beer is safe for human consumption, making this step an added bonus for anyone who does it…”

A BASIC GUIDE TO PURCHASING AND USING TUNNEL PASTEURIZERS

  By   Edward A. Michalski   CEO   PRO Engineering/Manufacturing, Inc.   Tunnel pasteurizers are efficient and effective machines that are available in numerous sizes. The food and beverage industries use them to kill microbes, stop fermentation and in general, provide shelf stability.  These machines are subject to significant heat variations, caustic cleaning chemicals, steam, water, huge mechanical stresses and in many applications, broken bottles.  PRO Engineering/Manufacturing, Inc. has been maintaining, repairing and re-engineering tunnel pasteurizers for over four decades. PRO designs and builds our own tunnel pasteurizers and refurbishes competitor’s machines.  There are different types of tunnel pasteurizers classified by the mechanism that moves the pasteurized product through the tunnel.   Walking Beam   This is an older configuration that employs alternating strips, pick...

TUNNEL PASTEURIZATION PROCESS FOR BREWMASTERS & THEIR BEER

By -

  Authored By   Jaime Jurado Pasteurization is an important unit operation in beer processing that inactivates the spoilage microorganisms present in beer thereby extending its shelf life. Pasteurization is the reduction of microorganisms by heating to a limited temperature and holding at that temperature such that there will be minimum effect on physical stability and flavor and a maximum extension of biological stability.    When the effect of pasteurization on the microbiological and sensory quality of white grape juice and wine was investigated by a UC Davis team, heat treatment of less than 3 Pasteurization Units (PUs = minutes at 60°C or equivalent) was sufficient to reduce 10 6  cells/mL of  Saccharomyces cerevisiae  and  Hansenula   anomala  added to Chenin blanc juice to an undetectable level (1).  Most brewers in the world pasteurize beer, including many craft breweries.  The organisms which cause the most difficulty in the bre...

  By   Edward A. Michalski   CEO   PRO Engineering/Manufacturing, Inc.   Short Video of Article Release for Brewmasters & Beverage Makers by   Edward A. Michalski,   CEO of PRO Engineering / Manufacturing Inc. Video Excerpt: “ Craft brewers take pride in the unique flavors of their brews and rightly so. They work hard to get that special taste. Craft brewers have shied away from pasteurization due to the mistaken belief that pasteurizing changes the taste of beer, when in fact, pasteurization preserves the taste. A general rule of thumb is that pasteurizing a brew will age it three days in terms of quality and taste. The optimal step in pasteurizing is to monitor the Pasteurization Units or P.U.s, in the process with the use of a P.U. monitor. For over 40 years, PRO Engineering and Manufacturing, Inc. has been delivering solutions for beverage product shelf stability and consumption safety. …” Video Link: https://lnkd.in/e4VyF_Yq For mor...
