Beer Industry Applications
Centrifuge Solutions for Wort Recovery, Beer Recovery, and Clarification
In modern breweries, maximizing wort and beer yield while maintaining consistent quality is essential for profitability. During wort boiling, fermentation, dry hopping, and maturation, significant volumes of valuable liquid remain bound to solids such as hot trub, hops, and yeast. Without efficient recovery, these losses accumulate rapidly in high-throughput brewing operations.
KES decanter and disc stack centrifuges are integrated at key stages of the brewing process to recover wort and beer, clarify green beer, and reduce the load on downstream filtration systems.
Typical Application Areas
Wort recovery from hot trub
After the whirlpool, hot trub contains a high proportion of recoverable wort. KES decanter centrifuges gently separate solids from liquid, allowing clear wort to be returned to the brewhouse without dilution or quality loss.
Beer recovery from spent hops and surplus yeast
During dry hopping and yeast removal, centrifuges extract beer trapped within solids, significantly reducing product losses and minimizing waste disposal volumes.
Green beer clarification
Prior to filtration or maturation, disc stack separators remove fine suspended solids, improving beer brightness, colloidal stability, and filter performance.
Process Benefits – Increased wort and beer yield – Improved clarity, brightness, and stability – Reduced filtration aid consumption and filter maintenance – Continuous, hygienic operation suitable for modern breweries
