pH measurement in lactic acid propagator
pH measurement in lactic acid propagatorWhat is measured and for what reason:
Lactic Acid is used to adjust the correct pH-level in mash and wort production. Breweries produce the lactic acid in propagators. The pH value in the population tank needs to be monitored to dose the right amount into mash tun and wort kettle.Why is it special:
The lactic acid production is a very sticky business. The bacteria are feed with wort. Usually the tank is always filled to a certain level. It is an important quality measurement point, because the dosing amount has a strong impact on the beer taste and color.How can it be solved best:
A sterilizable, retractable, holder for pH / ORP measurement allows the ph electrode to be sterilized, calibrated and cleanded without interrupting the process.For more information: Endress+Hauser GmbH
