Quality Control and Protocols

We are offering this consultancy package as the sixth step in setting up your microbrewery or pub brewery. 

It is also suitable for the established brewer wanting to fine tune his brewing techniques and produce more consistent beer.

This package offers the right guidance to setting up analytical protocols for your brewery and a record system suitable for ATO requirements.

 This is another cog to making sure you brew good, consistent beer. 

Without this sort of guidance a brewer is basically flying by the seat of their pants when it comes to understanding the nuances of his brewery and the end result, the consistency of  beer itself.

Relying on tasting your beer alone is really not enough.

Flavour profiling is important but complementing this with some basic but necessary analytical analyses should be mandatory for any serious brewer.

We will show you how to set up the right equipment for analyses, where to measure your beer and wort and set some parameter ranges for your beers.

A small laboratory to house the major equipment is highly recommended and we will show you and plan your laboratory.

We will spend up to 2 days off-site with planning and helping with analytical equipment purchasing and setting up protocols, and up to 2 days on-site getting everything in place and teaching you how to use the equipment.

If you choose not to put in a robust analytical protocol and lab in your brewery you will risk producing inconsistent beer.

Sending out unsuitable beer to the trade can undermine your business and may require costly recalls. 

This is both disruptive to your brewing schedule, time consuming and costly. 

You can also do the package on Hygiene; Traps in Cleaning and Sanitisation  which complements this section really well.
