Practical reads on beer quality control, lab testing, and getting the most out of the Beer-o-Meter.
A New Ingredient Is Not a Recipe: What We Took Home from the SBI Seminar
We joined the SBI Seminar in Veghel to learn more about the research behind modern brewing ingredients. The amount of research going into new yeast strains, hop products and brewing solutions is impressive, but transferring this knowledge into your own brewery requires another step. We look at how measurements can turn trial and error into controlled experimentation.
From Measuring Fermentation to Understanding It: What We Are Building Next
Beer-o-Meter is moving beyond individual measurements. We are developing new tests and software for fermentation tracking, batch comparison, recipe development and better control of unfinished fermentation and refermentation risks.
Craft Beer Is Still Growing, But Not in the Breweries Expected
Growth forecasts for craft beer still look positive, but real beer volumes tell a more complex story. Market value is not the same as volume, and capacity does not create demand. We look at the market signals breweries should follow to understand where real demand and opportunities are.
Sugar Analysis Is Becoming a Bigger Brewing Conversation
We returned from the EBC Congress in Rotterdam with one message confirmed clearly: sugar composition and sugar utilisation are becoming increasingly relevant topics across the brewing value chain, from academic researchers to breweries, yeast suppliers and malt suppliers.
An Exciting September and October Ahead of Beer-o-Meter!
Summer is coming to an end and Beer-o-Meter is heading out to meet brewers again. From Hopfendankfest in Cologne to the EBC Congress in Rotterdam and the Craft Beer Professionals Virtual Conference, we have three stops lined up to talk fermentation, dry hopping and practical process control.
Team Update: Saying Goodbye to Ruby and Welcoming Jelmer Coenradij
Our team is changing this summer. Ruby, an important part of the SG Papertronics and Beer-o-Meter journey, is following her dream of becoming an academic teacher. Meet Jelmer Coenradij, our new R&D Scientist, who brings both a strong analytical background and hands-on experience as a homebrewer and winemaker.
From Living Fermentation to Actionable Data: Supporting Product Development in Groningen
SG Papertronics and Beer-o-Meter are supporting Parrhesia's living fermented drinks with actionable process data, backing local food innovation in Groningen with SNN's help.
Golden Ale Workshop at Beerze: Cold Beers, Hot Weather and Process Control
At a hot summer workshop at Beerze, Beer-o-Meter and BIER+ explored Golden Ale through tasting and process control - discussing what makes this deceptively simple style so interesting to brew well.
