SUCCESS IS ... KEEPING HOP AND MALT FROM EVER BEING WASTED Optimizing the Brewing Process by Using Fewer Resources Engineered For Your Success

We offer customized solutions in separation technology for the entire brewing industry – from the small craft brewer to large breweries. When designing our machines, we already consider the process as a whole since every drop counts. With our technology, we support you in the brew house, in the cellar and in filtration in order to maximize work efficiency and conserve resources so that neither hop nor malt get lost. wort kettle wort recovery from hot trub spent grain pressing wort cooler Flottweg Beltpress Flottweg Decanter fermentations tanks green beer clarification maturation tanks Flottweg...

WORT RECOVERY FROM HOT TRUB Higher Yields in the Brewhouse The hot trub separated during wort clarification in the whirlpool still contains up to 75% liquid wort which may be recovered. The Flottweg Decanter in the brewery supplements the trub separation from hot wort. Even high feed trub content can be processed without problems. The separated hot trub is optimally concentrated. The recovered hot wort can be added directly to the clarified hot wort stream coming from the whirlpool.

Clear Wort The Flottweg Simp Drive® automatically regulates the differential speed based on the scroll torque. This is how the machine automatically adjusts to different load conditions, e.g. higher quantities of hot trub, which are especially relevant for late hopping. Maximum recovery of hot trub is therefore always ensured. ∙ ptimum adaption to the requests of different O recipes and hot trubs thanks to the adjustable impeller ∙ The clarified wort is discharged under pressure.

BEER RECOVERY FROM SURPLUS YEAST Reducing Beer Losses Beer recovery from surplus yeast after fermentation and/or storage is an ideal opportunity to reduce your beer losses. Recovering beer from surplus yeast allows you to recover two resources: beer, which can be returned into your process, and yeast which can be sold, for instance, for further processing in the food industry, as a vitamin rich dietary supplement or as animal feed. Moreover, recovering beer from surplus yeast helps to reduce waste water. Other systems for beer recovery such as disc stack centrifuges, membrane filtration or yeast...

Safe and Gentle Processing High Beer Yields Continuously high product quality thanks to a clever design ∙ ue to the high g-forces (up to 10,000 x g) and D thus the high clarification impact in the centrifugal field, the recovered beer is almost free of yeast. ∙ ompact yield cake with a high dry matter content C (between 24 and 28 per cent by weight) ∙ t is not necessary to dilute the surplus yeast I before processing. This means saving process water, a higher capacity of the machine and reduced energy demand. Optimum Process Management ∙ ine adjustment of the machine during operation F thanks...

BEER RECOVERY WITH DRY HOPPING Minimizing Losses and Automating Processes Dry hopping has developed in recent years into an established technique in the entire brewing industry. It is used especially for beers that contain a large amount of hops. In general, hop pellets are used. They are introduced during extraction for the fermentation and maturation process, giving the desired flavoring agents to the beer and settling as trub at the bottom of the tank. Handling hot trub this way requires a lot of work, complicating subsequent process steps. The product flow (pipe works and valves) tends to...

High Yields High Manufacturing Quality By adjusting the centrifuge to different amounts of hops or to various recipes, between 75 and 97% of the beer may be recovered. ∙ ygienic design, food certificates for lubricants H and seals ∙ ptimum adjustment of the machine to high O product temperatures and aggressive process media (CIP cleaning) Safe and Smooth Processing Efficient Cleaning ∙ o false flavors, e.g. hop burn thanks to a defined N extraction process ∙ CO2 blending to avoid oxygen pick-up in the beer All critical parts such as the hood, the rotor, the solids discharge system and other liquid-wetted...

BEER CLARIFICATION USING THE FLOTTWEG DISC STACK CENTRIFUGE Optimizing the Filtration Process Filtration often presents challenges to the brewer. Besides the varying quality of the raw material, the quality and the concentration of the yeast affect the filterability of the beer. These factors determine the length of the filter service life as well as the amount of filter additives consumed. The Flottweg Disc Stack Centrifuge helps optimize workflows in the filter cellar, reduce beer losses and adjust the desired turbidity. Longer filter service life With the use of disc stack centrifuges, most...

Plug & Play: Benefits of Our Skid Solutions Our pre-configured platform solutions allow for an even easier integration into existing processes: ∙ imple commissioning in existing production and CIP processes since S all components and monitor devices (valves, sensors) are already pre-installed ∙ ully automatic operation thanks to monitoring devices, e.g. turbidity F measurement device ∙ aximum flexibility thanks to recipe pre-selection for the beer to be M processed
