461: Von Ebert and Zero Gravity Save Money and Make Better Beer with Process Aids

from Craft Beer & Brewing Magazine Podcast · host Craft Beer & Brewing Magazine

In this episode, produced in partnership with RahrBSG, we’re taking a close look at process aids in the brewhouse and cellar, from anti-foaming agents and finings to enzymes and more. Whether you’re trying to keep more foam in your beer (rather than lose it while brewing and cellaring), fill tanks with more beer and less headspace (by limiting foam height within tanks), or clarify beer while reducing filtering time and expense (by using finings), there's a process aid that fits your goal. Here, we discuss the ins and outs of using these tools effectively in the brewery with Sam Pecoraro of Von Ebert in Portland, Oregon; Steve Theoharides of Zero Gravity in Burlington, Vermont; and Ashton Lewis, technical support manager at RahrBSG. We produced this episode in partnership with RahrBSG, your leading source for brewing ingredients and supplies.
