Speaker
The Microbiology of Beer Spoilage
As the saying goes, “There are three types of breweries: those who know they have a microbiological problem, those who don’t know they have a microbiological problem, and those who haven’t opened yet.” In this session, we will explore real-life case studies of spoilage events at breweries and how they were solved.
KEY TAKEAWAYS:
- Where do spoilage microbes come from?
- How do spoilage microbes get into beer?
- What is the process of beer spoilage and how can you detect it?
- How much harm is done inside and outside the brewery during a spoilage event?
