How Filtration Can Reduce Lagering Time and Improve Beer Clarity

How much lagering time could your brewery save by incorporating filtration into your process? By testing multiple filtration stages, we examined how different filter configurations impacted beer clarity, body, and overall flavor. One of the biggest takeaways? A 1.0 um filtration step removed yeast from the finished beer and allowed us to reduce typical lagering time by more than 50%—helping breweries free up valuable tank space while still producing an excellent finished product.

Process Piping vs. Utility Piping: What Manufacturers Need to Know

In a manufacturing plant, not all piping plays the same role. Some lines directly support production, while others keep the equipment running by delivering the utilities it needs. Understanding the difference between process piping and utility piping can help prevent scope gaps, startup issues, and costly downtime. Read more in the full article.
