This method describes how to determine the time required for filtration of laboratory mashes.
Malt intended for use in beer brewing or elsewhere in the food industry
The time from the beginning to the end of filtration is determined when producing a laboratory mash.
This method describes how to test the sensory impact of filter aids and stabilizing agents under normal operating conditions.
Filter aids and stabilizing agents which are used in the brewing and food production industries
In order to test the influence and effects of filter aids in a routine production situation, it is recommended that a filtration trial be conducted under standard operating conditions.
The odor and flavor of the filtered beer is also tested as part of this trial.
The test should be conducted against a control sample that has not been in contact with the material to be tested.
Prediction of the extract content and predetermination of the processability and value of a lot of barley for brewing purposes
The behavior of barley during the malting process, which is intended for large-scale malt production, must be known.
MEBAK approved and adopted a micromalting procedure on 6 April 1971 as a standard method for predicting the extract content and for determining the suitability of barley varieties for malting. In 2003, MEBAK shortened the procedure by one day for a total of six days for vegetative growth (steeping and germination), the same length of time as the EBC procedure.
This method describes how to perform the iodine test and measure the saccharification time in the Congress mash method.
Malt intended for use in beer brewing or elsewhere in the food industry
The iodine test is performed to determine the time required for saccharification during mashing. It is to be evaluated based on the type of malt used for mashing.
