HIGH GRAVITY BREWING

High Gravity Brewing or HGB Brewing is understood as a brewing process, where the original extract (%OE) in the beer is reduced by addition of gravity liquor (de-aerated water) at filtration stage. This technique allows you to brew a larger batch size without buying larger brewing and fermenting equipment

Advantages:

• Higher utilization of brewing equipment, brewhouse, fermenting tanks.
• Higher capacity, non HGB plant can be obtained at a lower capital expenditure.
• More accurate adjustment of Sales Gravity in the final beer.
• Lower beer loss during the beer production procedure because more water can be used for flushing at beer transfer.
• Improved flavor, more fruity and estery flavors in the beer (%Plato should be lower than 15% P).
• More settles out more protein tannin complexes, more chemical stability.
