Project:
Crate Brewery.
Crate Brewery, a Hackney Wick specialist in craft beers, is utilising a dry hopping system from Hoptimiser – a division of Hampshire-based Torqueflow-Sydex Ltd – to make significant savings in process time and hop utilisation, without compromising taste.
​
​
-
Processing time reduced from days to hours
-
Significant potential to optimise hopping rates to drive quality
-
Better extraction and reduced chemical costs among further benefits
A whopping good result.
​
“When our beers were dry-hopped at the same rate of hop addition – circulating the beer for between 45 minutes and 2 hours – we got similar results to those obtained previously over three days. So you can see the level of savings in terms of processing time, all without compromising taste.”
