DENVER, Aug. 15, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- At the World
Brewing Congress (www.worldbrewingcongress.org) in Denver, USA,
FlavorActiV and Bruker Corporation (NASDAQ: BRKR) announced their
strategic partnership and the launch of the Flavor Stability
Package, by combining world-class beer sensory know-how
with consistent tools and proven Bruker e-scan™ EPR
technology.
Today a combination of taste panels, oxygen process meters, and
SO testing are the most common methods to assess beer flavor
stability. However, none of these measurements allow brewers
to understand rapidly how stages of the brewing process, new
materials, plant design and operating procedures all impact flavor
stability.
With over 100 Flavor Stability e-scan
Beer-Analyzer EPR instruments already installed in
breweries worldwide, there is clear evidence of their benefits for
improving beer freshness and shelf-life. The Flavor
Stability Package delivers consistent calibrations,
optimized reagents, operator training, process sampling know-how
and alignment of shelf life panels with EPR results. Ensuring
beer freshness with the assistance of Bruker's Flavor
Stability Package is already delivering benefits for global
breweries and generating considerable interest across the
industry.
With over 20 years of experience in training taste panels to
identify oxidation and predict shelf life, the FlavorActiV global
team includes brewers and sensory experts , located in key markets
providing fast, local and sustained best practice tools and
support. Together with Bruker, the market and performance
leader in electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), this new
partnership is positioned to deliver measurable results for
breweries wishing to improve flavor stability.
Please visit booth #306 at the World Brewing Congress to meet
FlavorActiV and Bruker representatives, and learn more about how
this Flavor Stability partnership can benefit your brewery. Dr.
Boris Gadzov, FlavorActiV's Director
of Global Sensory Management, will be presenting a poster with the
title: 'Aligning Sensory and Analytical Best Practices for
Monitoring Beer Flavor Stability'.
