Yeast Propagation Monitor (New Application)
Many of the world’s leading brewing companies now understand the benefits of producing a yeast growth profile over the entire propagation period from start to finish. We can recommend the best Compact Yeast Monitor set-up optimised for this operation. The data from the Yeast Monitor can be used to determine: The initial concentration in the propagator after pitching. The rate of cell growth in the propagator; this will pick up an early indication if the yeast cells are growing at the correct rate or if the propagation has become “stuck” due to underpitching or poor quality seed. A target peak cell concentration; this value is usually the most important one as propagation might be stopped at a certain critical concentration or the final value might be used to calculate the dosing volume into a full production vessel.
