A craft brewer uses CO₂ to purge oxygen from the headspace in bright beer tanks to reduce dissolved oxygen levels in final products. They used a time-based method to determine when to determine purge completion, but this is an imprecise method that can overuse expensive CO₂. METTLER TOLEDO provided the InTap portable oxygen analyzer to the craft brewer. InTap measures dissolved oxygen levels down to 2 ppb using a highly precise optical sensor, making it suitable for a wide range of brewery applications ranging from purging to monitoring filling lines.
This video discusses how a craft brewer reduced CO2 use with a convenient, portable oxygen meter.
It addresses critical issues concerning beer production, such as:
- Complete tank purge determination.
- Why use a portable meter to measure dissolved oxygen?
- How to Increase Your Product Quality Confidence
