Grain malting brewing

Malting/Brewing

PerkinElmer provides testing solutions, from incoming barley to malting and brewing processes, beer testing, and even ensuring the quality of bottles and cans. Measure for composition, functionality, and safety. Today, maltsters test barley and finished malt using a wide range of analytical methods to ensure process efficiency. Testing confirms the finished malt has the qualities and characteristics requested by their customers. In addition to NIR grain analyzers, we offer unique tools such as the Rapid Visco Analyser and the Falling Number method for sprout damage detection. Use our GC-MS to monitor the key flavor components during wort boiling and fermentation. Optimization of these processes can provide energy savings, increased capacity, and improved beer quality.

Perten Brewing adjuncts method - RVA 17.04

Brewing adjuncts method - RVA 17.04

This application describes the use of an RVA to assess the effect of added ingredients on the mashing behavior of a malt. Malts are tested with and without added enzymes, adjuncts or chemicals (e.g. pH modifiers). The differences are used to determine the improvement or deterioration in mashing beha ...

Perten Malt (kilned) method - RVA 16.04

Malt (kilned) method - RVA 16.04

The method is first used to establish the malting potential calibration for the variety of interest. To do this, a number of malts varying in known malting potential for the selected variety are tested. From the viscograms, the peak viscosity, time to peak, breakdown, peak area, holding strength and ...

Perten Mash viscosity characterization method - RVA 38.01

Mash viscosity characterization method - RVA 38.01

This procedure is based on the method of Goode et al. (2005) using malted and unmalted barley, to study the effect of endogenous enzyme and added adjunct levels, respectively, on mash viscosity. This profile can be used to check the suitability of a batch of grain for mashing, or for checking the ap ...

Perten Barley stored method RVA

Barley (stored) method - RVA 14.02

Barley must retain high viability level in storage, typically above 95%, to be accepted for malting. The RVA Stirring Number test provides a rapid method for assessing sprout damage in malting barley.

Perten Malt quality method - RVA 39.01

Malt quality method - RVA 39.01

The profiles in this method are modified from the procedures of Broadhead et al. (2004), using malted barley and wheat.In studying barley malt and modified malt samples for distilling performance, Broadhead et al. (2004) used a 30-minute heating profile on the RVA to successfully identify malts.
