Day 0: all clear. Day 14: guess who? 🦠🍺

Microbial contamination doesn’t always appear when beer leaves the packaging line. Cells may be below detection limit or stressed then recover during storage.

That’s why vigilance matters:

🔬 Retain samples from the start, middle and end of packaging
🗺️ Link every result to a tank, hose, filler, package and date
🧼 Re-test after cleaning, maintenance or replacement
📈 Watch pH, fermentable sugar, carbonation and sensory changes

One positive result is a warning. A recurring pattern is evidence and it can point you towards the source.
Don’t test only to reject a batch. Test to learn, locate and prevent.

🔬Beer-o-Meter is proving that fermentation control goes far beyond beer.
 
Our collaboration with Parrhesia Fermentery is another strong validation that our technology can support a much wider range of fermentation processes, including fermented soft drinks, culinary beverages, kombucha-style products and other living foods.
 
Beer-o-Meter gives producers real-time insight into fermentable sugars and pH, helping them understand how fermentation develops, when it is complete and whether the final product is stable and consistent.
 
That means better control, faster product development, stronger repeatability and more confident scale-up.
 
Parrhesia invited us to contribute after an introduction by Daan van Oldeniel from Triade, and the feasibility study is supported by SNN through a Proeftuin subsidy.
 
For us, this project is an important step forward. It demonstrates that Beer-o-Meter is not just a brewing solution. It is a versatile fermentation-monitoring platform with applications across food, beverages and biotechnology.
 
One platform. Multiple fermentation processes. Better decisions.

Bij brouwen en fermentatie heeft de juiste informatie pas echt waarde wanneer die op tijd beschikbaar is om ernaar te handelen.

Deze post is geïnspireerd door gesprekken met brouwerijen en fermentatieproducenten die pas op zoek gaan naar analytische informatie nadat een probleem zich al heeft ontwikkeld. Op dat moment kan testen nog steeds verklaren wat er is gebeurd, maar de kans om het huidige proces bij te sturen is vaak al voorbij. De inzichten kunnen dan meestal pas worden toegepast bij de volgende batch.

Daarom is tijdig testen belangrijk.

Bij Beer-o-Meter bieden wij laboratoriumdiensten voor bier- en fermentatietesten om producenten te helpen hun proces beter te begrijpen, onderbouwde beslissingen te nemen en uitdagingen op het gebied van kwaliteit of consistentie op te lossen.

Afhankelijk van de vraag ondersteunen wij brouwerijen en fermentatieproducenten ook met data-interpretatie en met het kiezen van de juiste testen voor de situatie. Niet elke uitdaging vraagt om een volledig analytisch panel. Soms is de meest waardevolle stap juist het kiezen van de juiste metingen op het juiste moment, zodat de resultaten direct in het huidige proces gebruikt kunnen worden.

Of je nu een kwaliteitsprobleem onderzoekt, consistentie wilt verbeteren, een proceswijziging wilt valideren of een meer gestructureerde kwaliteitscontrole wilt opbouwen: wij helpen graag bepalen welke informatie nodig is en hoe je die praktisch kunt gebruiken.

Heb je een procesvraag of wil je je kwaliteitscontrole versterken? Neem gerust contact met ons op.

🍺 Join us at Beerze for a workshop dedicated to the world of Ales!

On 24 June at 13:00, Beer-o-Meter and Derek Walsh will host a workshop at BEERZE Brouwerij (Ivo Kaanen), where we will focus on the Golden Ale beer style.

Golden Ale is a highly drinkable and well-balanced style, typically characterised by a bright golden colour, clean malt profile, moderate bitterness, refreshing finish, and delicate fruity, floral, or lightly hoppy notes. It is a beer style that may appear simple at first glance, but requires careful control of recipe, fermentation, and process conditions to achieve the desired flavour balance.

During the workshop, we will discuss:
🍻 the typical flavour profile of Golden Ale
⚙️ how brewers can steer the process to achieve the desired sensory result
🧪 how testing and process control can support consistency and quality
👃 tasting examples and discussing practical brewing choices

We will also bring samples for tasting, and participants are welcome to bring their own beer samples for testing.

Brewers and beer enthusiasts are warmly invited to join us & come thirsty for knowledge and ready to explore the beautiful world of Ales.

🍻 New Brouw! Magazine no. 34 is out!
A couple of weeks ago, the newest edition of Brouw! Magazine was published and we read Derek’s article about Saison beers with great interest.
Saison is a beautiful and unique beer style, but also one that is not always easy to control.
One important finding deserves attention:
➡️ in too many cases, the declared ABV on the label was not confirmed by standard EBC methods.
That is a problem but it is a problem that can be solved.
The reason may be linked to the yeast used for fermentation. Saison yeasts are tricky to control, and if this is not properly included in calculations and process control, the final beer may not match what the brewer thinks is happening.
For us, the conclusion is clear:
✅ better process design
✅ better fermentation control
✅ better analytical testing
✅ better understanding of yeast behaviour
This is what we present in our column, we show how we worked with and on fermentation control: following sugars, understanding yeast activity and helping brewers stay in control of the process.
Good beer needs creativity but professional brewing also needs control. 🍺

QualityControl

I am leaving Szkoła Fermentacji with a lot of useful conversations and a clear message: sugar control matters across the whole brewing ecosystem. 🍺
During the event, I had the chance to speak with brewers from different types and sizes of breweries, as well as academics working on topics ranging from wort preparation innovation to low- and non-alcoholic beverages.
What connected many of these discussions was the same practical challenge: understanding fermentable sugars better, earlier and more often.
For large-scale production, this means better process control and consistency.
For craft breweries, it means making better decisions during fermentation and packaging.
For research teams, it means having accessible data to test ideas, compare processes and move faster.
This is exactly where Beer-o-Meter can help: by making fermentable sugar testing easier to perform frequently, whether you are running industrial processes, craft-size batches or experimental work.
One thing that stood out to me was how large breweries combine innovation with efficiency. Not by simply buying every new tool available, but by building a culture that stays open, curious and focused on continuous improvement.
That mindset is relevant for breweries of every size — and for academic labs as well.
Events like Szkoła Fermentacji show that progress happens when brewers, scientists and technology providers talk openly and look for practical ways to collaborate.
Thank you to everyone I spoke with. Let’s keep the discussion going.
If you are working on fermentation control, low/no-alcohol beer, sugar management or process optimisation, I would be happy to connect and explore how Beer-o-Meter can support your work. 🔬

First quick catch up and later set up of our booth at the Philadelphia Brewers Association Craft Beer Conference! Come find us at Booth 2365! 🍻

We know and love American craft beer culture: big flavors, bold styles, and of course… plenty of hops. 🌿 But with those hops can come challenges like hop creep. Looking for ways to keep this under control? Or are you looking for a way to become more efficient and effective with expensive ingredients? We’d love to show you how Beer-o-Meter helps keep things like hop creep under control.

Got a beer sample with you? Bring it on! We can test it on the spot for total fermentable sugars, pH and color, giving you quick, actionable insights right at the booth.

Most of all, we are excited to meet brewers, talk shop, and share our passion for great beer. Stop by, say hi, and let’s talk beer! 🍺
