Processing<br />

is clear, a switch is made to the wort<br />

kettle. During the lautering process,<br />

the JUMO TAROS S46 H measures the<br />

differential pressure under the drop<br />

bottom to control the rotational speed<br />

of the frequency-controlled pump and<br />

to switch on the chopper if necessary.<br />

After the main pour has been completed<br />

the post pours follow. The quantity of<br />

the individual post pours is acquired<br />

again via the JUMO flowTRANS US<br />

W01/02. Post-pouring is intended to<br />

remove any remaining extract from the<br />

spent grains. The sum of the extract<br />

that can be washed out and degraded<br />

should be less than 1 %.<br />

In the subsequent process step, the wort<br />

is boiled for approximately 70 to 90<br />

minutes. Boiling evaporates the water<br />

to obtain the required original wort,<br />

expels unwanted aroma substances,<br />

sterilizes the wort, inactivates enzymes,<br />

and forms aroma as well as colorants.<br />

During boiling the hops are also added<br />

to the wort. This can be done in several<br />

individual hop dosages, depending on<br />

the beer and hop varieties. For bitter<br />

hops, the boiling process improves the<br />

dissolution of the bitter substances<br />

which is why they are usually added to<br />

the mix at the beginning. Aroma hops,<br />

on the other hand, are only added<br />

towards the end of boiling. The hop<br />

varieties used for the anniversary beer<br />

were magnum, ariana, and saphir.<br />

After boiling the wort is cooled down to<br />

20 °C. This is done with a countercurrent<br />

heat exchanger. At the outlet, the JUMO<br />

flowTRANS MAG H20 acquires both the<br />

totalized flow rate and the temperature.<br />

The rotational speed of the wort pump<br />

is controlled as a function of the wort<br />

outlet temperature.<br />

After the preparation with yeast comes<br />

the fermentation and storage of the<br />

beer. Precise temperature control<br />

plays a particularly important role in<br />

fermentation. While beers with topfermented<br />

yeast ferment between 15<br />

and 20 °C, bottom-fermented yeasts<br />

ferment in a range of 4 to 9 °C.<br />

JUMO digiLine CI HT10<br />

determines concentration of<br />

cleaning media<br />

Automatic cleaning of the equipment<br />

is also an option. The CIP function<br />

is made possible by such factors as<br />

concentration measurement of the<br />

cleaning media. JUMO digiLine CI<br />

HT10 determines the concentration<br />

of the different cleaning media<br />

via the temperature-compensated<br />

conductance in the hot water<br />

container.<br />

Another measurement is used at<br />

the plant discharge to monitor the<br />

individual cleaning steps and media<br />

separation. First, the plant is preflushed<br />

with water via the spray heads in the<br />

containers. Subsequently, the cleaning<br />

steps with caustic soda, another rinsing<br />

with water, and neutralization with nitric<br />

acid or phosphoric acid follow. The last<br />

step is the final rinse with water until<br />

the conductance detects the complete<br />

removal of the acid at the outlet.<br />

to the reduction of service water and<br />

cleaning agents.<br />

CIP processes can also be carried<br />

out in a comparable manner in the<br />

pharmaceutical industry. In this case,<br />

the last rinse takes place with ultra-pure<br />

water. The conductance of the ultra-pure<br />

water is determined using the JUMO<br />

tecLine CR conductivity sensor and<br />

the JUMO AQUIS 500 CR transmitter.<br />

According to the specifications of USP<br />

645 the temperature compensation<br />

can be deactivated in this case.<br />

Control and visualization<br />

Operation of the plant takes place<br />

via the JUMO variTRON 500 touch<br />

controller and the JUMO smartWARE<br />

SCADA software for process monitoring<br />

and control.<br />

The recipes for the individual beer<br />

types as well as the individual CIP<br />

functions can be configured intuitively<br />

without programming skills using<br />

the browser-based software solution<br />

JUMO smartWARE Program. JUMO<br />

smartWARE Evaluation enables<br />

additional recording of all process<br />

parameters.<br />

"Subsequently, both the brewing<br />

process and the CIP process can<br />

be evaluated and verified with an<br />

automated batch report," says Martin<br />

Eppinger, market segment manager<br />

for food and beverage at JUMO. This<br />

simplifies the brewing process for<br />

the next beer, which can then also be<br />

thoroughly enjoyed.<br />

Martin Eppinger<br />

This is where the JUMO digiLine CI<br />

HT10 shows its strength. The accurate<br />

concentration measurement and<br />

short response time of the integrated<br />

temperature measurement contribute<br />
