Scientific Digest


THE POTENTIAL IN DRY HOPPING

ABSTRACT
The different growing regions of hop production also use different techniques for hop drying after harvest. This US Team did a comparison of different kilning procedures. In the US the traditional hop method is to pile them 60-80 cm in large boxes and to run through the beds with air heated to 48-66 degrees C. This can result in uneven drying with bottom hops having 5% moisture and the hops at the top having up to 20% moisture. Overheating the hops can result in the formation of off flavours like onion/garlic. In comparison, drying hops with unheated and dehumidified air results in a less than 1% moisture difference between top and bottom of the bed. However this system is energy intensive and takes up to 48hrs in comparison to up to 13 hrs for the traditional method. The system in Germany/ Europe consists of using three drawers of hops with a height of 30 cm each that are dried and then dropped to the second tier as a new load of hops is loaded into the top tier. Again, after partial drying the middle tier is dropped to the lowest tier, the top tier to the middle, and the top once again reloaded. This system results in very homogenous moisture levels but in terms of energy consumption appears to be slightly above the US system. This study thoroughly compares all three systems in terms of energy consumption showing all pros and cons in terms of hops quality. Obviously for all systems there is still room for improvement.

Brewery news India: Investigation concludes AB InBev, Carlsberg and UB colluded to fix beer prices - sources
The investigations unit of India’s Competition Commission has concluded that Anheuser-Busch InBev, Carlsberg and United Breweries colluded to fix beer prices, two people with direct knowledge told Reuters.

The Competition Commission of India (CCI) launched the investigation after AB InBev told the watchdog it had detected an industry cartel, leading in 2018 to dawn raids at the three brewers’ offices to collect evidence.

The investigation has found that 15-20 executives from the three brewers were involved in discussions of beer prices before they were submitted to Indian state regulators, thereby violating antitrust laws, said the two sources, who declined to be named as the report is not public.

“The evidence seized by the CCI during searches last year was enough to nail the culprits,” said one of the sources.

AB InBev, the world’s largest brewer, whose Indian offerings include Budweiser and Corona, told Reuters it would not be appropriate to comment at this time, but said it takes antitrust compliance “very seriously”.

Carlsberg, which sells beer under its own-name brand and also owns Tuborg, declined to comment on Friday, but has previously said it is “committed to complying” with all relevant laws.

United Breweries, which is part-owned by Heineken and known for its Kingfisher brand, said ...More info on site


Brewery news Australia: State of Victoria launches programme to support small-scale and craft beer producers
The Government of Victoria in Australia has launched a programme to support small-scale and craft beer producers in the state to expand their business, The Drinks Insight Network reported on October 23.

Through the initiative, the government aims to encourage craft producers in the state to increase the production capacity to create employment opportunities.

The Victoria Minister for Agriculture, Jaclyn Symes, launched the A$10 mln (US$6.8 mln) Small-Scale and Craft Program during her visit to King River Brewing in Whitfield.

The launch of the programme follows the Artisanal Sector Program, whereby government provided grants to Victoria’s highly valued and diverse artisanal produce sector.

Under the programme, King River Brewing received A$5,000 (US$3,420) to enclose the brewery and install a climate control system to enable year-round manufacturing of its beers.

The brewery is engaged in the production of small-batch and preservative-free boutique beer.

It produces a wide range of beers including Kolsch, Pale Ale, Belgian Tripel and Doppelbock, as well as seasonal beers such as the Fig Porter.

Symes said: “Victoria’s small-scale and craft producers have enormous potential to take the state’s phenomenal produce to the world. We’re backing their expansions, job creation and new products.

“If you’re one of Victoria’s unique, small-scale food, craft beer or spirit producers, ...More info on site


Brewery news Japan: Kirin to launch non-alcoholic beer with Food with Functional Claim
Kirin is preparing to launch its non-alcoholic beer with a Food with Functional Claim (FFC) label in Japan, BeverageDaily.com reported on October 24.

The beer, Kirin Karada Free, contains matured hop extract (S-Ignite) which the firm claims to help reduce abdominal fat.

Toshiaki Hyodo from the corporate communication at Kirin Holdings told NutraIngredients-Asia that there was an increasing awareness in health and moderate exercise, “and consumers are looking to obtain (health) benefits from drinking beverages.”

He said this had contributed to the share of functional beer market in Japan.

Hops extract powder is made from maturing hops, which not only reduces the bitterness, but also increases the amount of matured hop bitter acids, which are the active component for fat burn.

S-ignite works is by activating brown adipose tissue (BAT) rapidly via the sympathetic nerves. Activated BAT reduces body fat by acting as a metabolic furnace that uses the fat stored in white adipose tissue as fuel.

The firm said activated BAT is the key to continuously burning body fat, and eventually, reducing abdominal fat.

In a clinical trial conducted in 2016 by Morimoto-Kobayashi et al., 200 healthy but overweight (25≤BMI<30) Japanese males and females were recruited.

They were divided into two groups and told to consume a ...More info on site
